The Cave Singers are a Seattle-based folk outfit that is signed to Matador Records. Fresh off a kick-ass performance at the Pickathon,  The Cave Singers return to Portland for MusicfestNW. Currently touring behind their most recent release, Invitation Songs. Seattle’s The Cave Singers debut with a rural blend of homespun mystery and “folk music approached by way of punk rock, or an updated version of the ‘Anthology Of American Folk Music’. You might hear bits of Calexico, Iron & Wine, Devendra, or Lindsey Buckingham in their dense and eerie sound. Singer Pete Quirk’s appealingly nasal voice simultaneously echoes Arlo Guthrie and a mosquito’s buzz.” – Seattle Weekly

The Cave Singers play at the Toyota Antics and KEXP stage at Doug Fir during MusicfestNW on Friday, Sept. 10, with The Tallest Man on Earth, Mimicking Birds, and S. Carey. Entry with MusicfestNW wristband or $15 at the door. Doors open at 8:00 pm.
