From the first minute I first heard the unique sounds of the Cave Singers, blending folk instrumentation and structure with punk inspiration, I was on board. The band returned to Mohawk on Saturday night to give Austin it’s first taste of the newly released material from Welcome Joy in it’s live format. Working within the boundaries of it’s format, the band displays it’s punk inspiration while performing live, applying all the emotion and energy you expect from a great show. The band leaned heavy on the new material which has managed to broaden the appeal with rich textures and a more full sound, for the most part of the set.

According to the band, the tour has been extremely successful, with large crowds, and some packed houses. Catch the band on their few remaining US dates, and look for member Derek Fudesco to be joining his old band Murder City Devils on stage here in Austin @ Mohawk on 10.10.

Our friends over @ Austin Town Hall have a fine review of the show: HERE
