New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Girlie Action Media & Marketing) New York Magazine's Vulture exclusively premiered Caveman's music video for "
Thankful", a song with a message that encompasses the story of the couple Stockade and
Nikki Styxx who live in Long Island, NY and are engaged to be married. They are amateur pro wrestlers that participate in a variety of leagues. The video is directed in a documentary style by Austin Peters. You can see the video on New York Magazine's Vulture, Caveman's YouTube channel and on the director's Vimeo page.
Caveman's debut CoCo Beware received a wide release on March 27th via Fat Possum Records after the self-release on the band's Magic Man! label in the fall. The band continues their
Spring North American tour through the Midwest, Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles, where they'll return to the Echo -- home to their first-ever, sold-out LA show last December. The tour ends with a homecoming show with
Beirut and
Atlas Sound at the prestigious Brooklyn Academy of
Music theater, a fitting venue for the band whose front man Matt Iwanusa used to sing at New York's Metropolitan Opera for about 6 years.
Caveman is made up of five proud New York natives: lead singer/songwriter Matt Iwanusa, who also adds percussion and drums to the band on record and live on stage. Guitarist Jimmy "
Cobra" Carbonetti, who designs his hand-made Cobra Guitars from scratch, drummer and native Manhattanite Stefan Marolachakis, bassist Jeff Berrall, and Sam Hopkins on synths. Caveman's 10 song debut CoCo Beware is produced by Nick Stumpf (French Kicks) and shows front man Matt Iwanusa's ability to craft melodies and lyrics which tackle topics of life and love, reflections on hope and joy, and moody observations, all sung in grandiose four-part harmonies, wrapped in timeless melodies.
