Morning Aural: The Cave Singers
Those of you who like good old fashioned American folk music won’t be disappointed by Seattle-based The Cave Singers. Though the trio hasn’t had any formal training – nor do any of them profess to love the genre – their debut single, “Dancing On Our Graves,” captures the macabre longing and moral perplexity of American nostalgia.
Record label Matador Records concurs: “It’s sparse, melodic, creepy, and alluring, like the widow mourning graveside in Johnny Cash’s ‘Long Black Veil’.” Even if you’re not into folk, we definitely suggest you check out director Mike Ott’s disturbing video.
GREAT song and video!! i thought this was all stock footage but the evangelist is actually singing the song.
