Description

Cult alt-rock icon Chris Cacavas is coming to London for a very special, intimate solo show at The Slaughtered Lamb.

Chris Cacavas secured his position in the annals of alt-rock many years back as a founding member of the legendary Green On Red from Arizona / California. Alongside Dan Stuart's and Chuck Prophet's driving, jangling guitars, Cacavas' characteristic frenetic, quivering organ sound - often drawing comparisons to The Doors' Ray Manzarek - provided one of the defining features of the seminal first GOR albums.

It was during this era that Cacavas advanced to one of the most in-demand studio musicians for countless "desert rock" sessions between Tucson and Los Angeles. Deserving of special mention are his close collaborations with Howe Gelb / Giant Sand and Steve Wynn / The Dream Syndicate, who have recruited him as keyboardist while touring... he has just finished a European tour with TDS.

Chris has also had a highly productive and acclaimed solo career, either on his own or with his backing band Junkyard Love, producing a string of superb albums, including 'Pale Blonde Hell', 'Self Taut' and 'Love's Been Discontinued'. His folk-tinged rock songs, delivered with naked emotion and honesty, have garnered favourable comparisons to Neil Young (and indeed he appeared on a Neil Young tribute album in the late '90s).

It's a rare thing that Chris makes it to London to play solo, and this promises to be a very special evening!
