Cafuné - Paramount Theatre - 9.30.22

There aren't a whole lot of artists or bands who can say their first time performing in Seattle was to a sold out audience in the historic Paramount Theatre, but New York's Cafuné can. Opening up for Chvrches on their Screen Violence tour, Cafuné left their mark on the audience with a rollicking set, making the most of their 40 minute slot and undoubtedly priming themselves to come back to Seattle on a sold out headlining tour of their own in the near future. 

If you have TikTok, You may know Cafuné from their viral hit "Tek It" from their debut album, Running. Shortly after blowing up on socials, Elektra Records signed Cafuné. Smart move on their part, because Sedona Schat and Noah Yoo's musical chops and showmanship ensures they're set up for a lengthy touring career, regardless of having another song go viral on TikTok.

With a musical through-line of alt-pop and indie rock, Cafuné would nest nicely in your playlist alongside Phoebe Bridgers, the aforementioned Chvrches, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs in equal measure. Their next tour will undoubtedly be as a headliner, and when they come to your town, you'd be well served hitting up their show and moving those dancing feet to their effortlessly catchy sound.

Catch Cafuné on tour now, and hopefully again soon.
