From Mancs to Rockstars: The Cavs' Indie Rock Odyssey!

Music Junkies Podcast

We were ecstatic to have Chris, lead guitarist of the Manchester-based indie rock band The Cavs, join us for a conversation filled with music, memories, and a few laughs. In this spectacular episode, we discuss the remarkable story behind their walk-on song, a rendition of the opera classic 'Nessun Dorma', and how it's become an unforgettable part of their first gig back after the long lockdown.
Growing up with diverse musical influences from Guns N' Roses and AC/DC to Westlife and Ronan Keating, Chris shares how artists like Slash fueled his passion for guitar and even inspired his on-stage hat-wearing. With an extensive cover song repertoire, we delve into the challenges of selecting the perfect tunes for gigs, striking a balance between crowd pleasers and lesser-known B sides, and the fun experiences at wild live gigs.
Dive into the vibrant music scene of Manchester with us as we explore the impact it's had on The Cavs' music and their sold-out show experience when the audience sang along to their tunes. We also share insights into the band's pre-gig rituals and their heartwarming connection with the city's music lovers. Don't miss this episode that's packed with stories from the heart of Manchester's indie rock scene and words of wisdom from Chris and the Cavs.
