CAVERN 30TH BIRTHDAY NEWS!
Laura Stevenson is performing a live of her great 2011 album ’Sit Resist’, which has been remastered at Abbey Road Studios in London from the original 1/4” analog master tapes.
The performance will be live streamed on SUN 14TH FEB at 1AM (Sat February 13 at 8PM EST), but will be available for replay for 48 hours after.

Here’s the link: https://gctv.stream/?ref=-T83EDE3FImCE

For those of you that don’t know Laura is an American singer-songwriter and musician hailing from Long Island, New York. She’s played a lot at the Cavern over the years

“This record is a great document of a bunch of scrappy weird kids laughing through the terror of an uncertain future together. Sit Resist would be THE ONE if Laura didn’t continue to put out records that feel like THE ONE.” – Jeff Rosenstock
