CAVE MUSIC IS OVER (FOR NOW)
CAVE MUSIC IS OVER (FOR NOW)
Hello friends! As many of you may already know, Cave Music has come to an end after 4 years and ten sessions. What started as a few friends casually humming in the dark, came to be an event that drew upwards of 75 people and dozens of performers. That may not seem like big numbers in the grand scheme of things, but considering the 20 minute nearly mile long walk up a frozen mountain in subzero temperatures, it was always a surprise. Over the years we've had everything from the sweetest of folk songs to the most deafeningly beautiful noise, and lasers too - yeah, we had lasers in the cave. But all good things must pass, eh? That said, Cave Music is something that never really belonged to me, so if somebody in the northeast wants to keep this thing going, please email [email protected] and I can hand over the reigns to this wild thing if you're up to the task!
In the meantime, enjoy the bandcamp archive at http://cavemusicvolumes.bandcamp.com and thanks again for all the wonderful years of support.

Our summer Cave Music events went off well. The first of the season occurred during a torrential downpour but we still managed to draw a group of 45 people! The second event, under a day of pretty much perfect weather (but a forecast of rain) saw around 58! As usual, the concerts were a healthy mix of traditional folk ballads, rock and roll (from Los Angeles!), and wild amplified noise with lots in between. Check back for updates on the Winter season (around February/March) if you'd like to perform or attend. There is also a slim chance we may have a fall show in The Catskills sometime around late October. Stay tuned, and if you feel like supporting this thing, purchasing the albums on bandcamp is a great way! These shows don't cost anything to attend, and not much to put on, but that latter part adds up, so if you feel like buying an album or two, do it! Thanks to everybody who continues to make this an adventure worth taking - you all are wonderful. Oh, and we were also featured on the radio - WGXC in Hudson.

2015 has been a great year so far! VOLUME 2 has been updated with some music, words, pictures, AND video! Check it out. Rounding out the winter season of Cave Music with a bang. Looking towards some warmer weather and a return to some caves which have been closed off for the hibernating bat populations. Also, we're a bit behind on the publishing of previous events. Volumes 1, 3, 4, and 5 are in desperate need of attention, but who has the time? If you are new to Cave Music, please sign up for our mailing list to hear about future happenings, and if you have any suggestions for locations please send them our way! The next event will likely happen sometime in May. Stay tuned. |
