I saw a kickass acoustic-set today at the Hollywood Tower by Queen Caveat, a powerfully infectious up-and-coming independent band based in LA. They have great songs, and they’re talented music-school grads [go-figure], but the lead singer is what really sells this band.  

Digging through their reasonably-undeveloped online presence made me wish their videos did them more justice. However, their recent online posts unveil that they have an upcoming feature on ABC 20-20, which airs April 21st, 9-11pm.  This feature coincides with the release of their new 5-track EP “Slap on the Wrist”. #Sunsetblvd

Support the band and BUY THEIR NEW EP: Slap on the Wrist on iTunes, or Amazon.
