The Cave Singers

The Cave Singers is a Seattle-based indie-folk project started by former Murder City Devils and Pretty Girls Make Graves' bassist, Derek Fudesco. Unlike the art punk nature of those groups, the Cave Singers draws on classic country, folk and Americana influences, as well as from current indie rock trends. The songs are often sparse, acoustically-driven and full of harmonies, punctuated by lead singer Pete Quirk's raspy vocals. Since 2007, the band has quietly been releasing understated but effective albums for indie giant, Matador Records.
