Cavetown
Bittersweet Daze
Multi-RIAA Platinum and Gold certified singer/songwriter and producer Cavetown, also known as Robin Skinner, will team up with fellow artists mxmtoon, Ricky Montgomery, and grentperez for his U.S. headline tour, “Bittersweet Daze” this summer.
“Bittersweet Daze” presents an opportunity for fans to see all of their favorite artists in one night, hand picked by Skinner. As close collaborators and friends of Skinner over the years, mxmtoon, Ricky Montgomery, and grentperez will all take the stage for the special 12-date tour, which kicks off on July 20th at Los Angeles’ iconic Greek Theatre. Tickets will go on sale February 3rd at 9 AM, with $1 from every ticket sold benefiting the This Is Home Project.
The upcoming tour marks Cavetown’s first tour stateside since Spring 2022 and is in support of his highly praised Fall 2022 album, worm food. The first full length album since 2020’s Sleepyhead, Cavetown delivers his most elaborately realized body of work to date on worm food, shaping his idiosyncratic storytelling into songs that ultimately give voice to our own most intimate emotions. As with all his output, Skinner produced the album on his own at his home studio, holing up in his garage and infusing his understated alt-pop with a powerful new vitality.
In addition to the album, Skinner announced the formation of the This Is Home Project in October. The foundation’s aim is to donate to various organizations, including Black LGBTQIA+ Migrant Project (BLMP), True Colors United,and Stonewall, to empower and support LGBTQ+ youth. On January 11th, Cavetown and fellow bedroom-pop and DIY musicians performed at the first annual This Is Home Project Benefit Show in New York City including mxmtoon, Chloe Moriondo, and more. All proceeds were donated to New Alternatives, a New York City charity focused on ending homelessness for LGBTQIA+ youth.
