Cavetown announces new album and additional UK tour dates

Robin Skinner – aka Cavetown – has unveiled details of his upcoming album worm food.

The follow-up to 2020’s Sleepyhead will arrive on November 4 via Sire Records, and is previewed by lead single 1994 which you can stream below.

Of the track, Cavetown explains: “1994 is about dealing with perceived guilt and how it can become over-exaggerated in my head. I’m working on defining the line between what’s really wrong in a situation versus what is made up in my head, because it’s the parts that aren’t real that I end up feeling quite guilty about.

“The lyrics are a message to myself, to help me see that there’s still a child inside of me that is deserving of love and care. The line ‘Say you’re coming around / I need you lately everything’s been getting me down’ is about feeling comforted by isolating myself, but learning to be comforted by the presence of someone else.”
