Chris Cacavas - Cupid (Rock)
Chris Cacavas has been kicking around the music business since the early
’80s and has served as a sideman for such artists as Green on Red,
Steve Wynn, Giant Sand, and Pat Thomas. He released his debut LP (with
his band Junkyard Love) in 1988. Cacavas’ country- and folk-tinged rock
songs, delivered in a plaintive, mournful voice, have weathered
consistent comparisons to Neil Young.
(Comparisons that are certainly further fueled by his
appearance on the Neil Young tribute album This Note’s for You, Too!, on
which he covered “Tonight’s the Night.”) Most of Cacavas’ earlier
records are primarily available in Germany, where he has a distinct cult
following. 1999’s Dwarf Star, released on Innerstate Records, made his
country-inflected melancholia more widely available to American record
buyers. The effort featured a host of originals, including the
childishly innocent “I Like Lyle Lovett” (sample lyric: “If I had a
boat/We could sail all day/And he would make me laugh/By the funny
things he’d say”). Dwarf Star also featured a cover of the Matthew Sweet
pop/country dirge “Someone to Pull the Trigger.” In 2002, Cacavas
released the album Bumbling Home From the Star on Innerstate.
