Watch Cave Painting perform on a London rooftop for Best Fit Sessions
Brighton’s Cave Painting are Britain’s best band in waiting.
Votive Life – their debut - is one of the most understated records you’ll hear this year, full of honeyed vocals and swooping guitars that cling to sensitive but-strident pop songs built around those wonderful and terrible things in life we can all relate too.
“‘So Calm’ is about being completely at ease with someone else but not being happy with the overall situation you’re both in and wanting to elope and escape,” explained the band recently. They played it for us when we met up with the for their Best Fit Session – on a London rooftop an hour before dusk. Storm clouds threatened to gather overhead but the rain stayed away and we captured a truly perfect three and a half minutes of music.
Votive Life is out now on Third Rock Recordings. Cave Painting play The Old Queens Head in London on Monday 8 October.
