Cav OK make a sound that crosses through the genres of rock, indie and electro to tap your musical shoulder and smack you in the teeth. Punk and emo fans will like the immediacy and raw attitude, the ‘indie’ crowd will warm to the riffs and sci fi disco noises, the lyrics strike a chord with everyday life and it’s all wrapped up in a wonderfully modern-retro image. For fans of more traditional rock they have the beats and intricate guitar interplay and that driving sound that could equally take you down route 66 or the M6 to the badlands of Manchester. They are explosive, tight and spellbinding live shows have attracted a large fanbase and has seem them play festivals and venues throughout the U.K. alongside the likes of Enter Shakiri, Art Brut & The Pigeon Detectives.
Cav OK’s influences are diverse. They vary from The Afghan Whigs, Joy Division and Peter Gabriel to The Buzzcocks, Radiohead and Les Rythmes Digitales. Throwing such an eclectic mix of tastes into the melting pot is perhaps why their expansive sound is very much their own.
