grentperez and Cavetown Join Forces on Upcoming Bittersweet Daze Tour 

Tour Kicks off July 20th at LA’s Greek Theatre

 

Friday, July 14th, 2023 – Following the success of his new EP When We Were Younger,today, grentperez releases a new take on the title track featuring  English singer-songwriter, Cavetown, released via Fast Friends & AWAL. Maintaining the childhood nostalgia captured throughout the original project, Cavetown and grentperez join forces to create a fun-loving track and a music video that epitomizes 90s cartoons and happy endings. 

“What better way to reminisce on old memories than to share those memories with your friends. Cute right?” grentperez says of the collaboration. “Anyways, Cavetown and I just felt like being partners, fighting crime and saving the world, and so we joined up and recorded this edition of ‘When We Were Younger.’”

“We are so close to starting the Bittersweet Daze tour and I’m so excited to have grent on it. I got to lay down a verse in this new version of 'when we were younger' !! Check it out i hope u enjoy it 😊,” says Cavetown.

“When We Were Younger” blends grentperez’s signature bossa nova with sonic staples of the 90s, transporting listeners back in time. With sparkles of the swelling strings of golden-era Hollywood, as well as clear influence from the scores of rom-coms, his production mirrors his lyrical longing for the past, but told through the lens of the seasoned storyteller and musician he is today, awakening long-dormant memories while simultaneously providing a soundtrack for new ones. 

Grentperez and Cavetown are performing together throughout the summer on the Bittersweet Daze Tour, along with artists mxmtoon and Ricky Montgomery, where they’ll be playing major markets like Chicago, Philadelphia, Denver and more. Later this fall, the 21 year old artist will open for Rex Orange County during their NZ/Australia tour, and he will also set off on his biggest tour to date, spanning 20+ days across North America and Europe.

About grentperez:

21-year-old Australian musician grentperez is unapologetically a Gen-Z artist with an old soul. Having first found his audience on YouTube strumming guitar, singing covers and original songs, he’s blossomed into an unlikely star: an unassuming and unpretentious artist inspired by the music played at family karaoke parties, as well as vintage bossa nova and modern R&B. The young songwriter is a full-fledged artist, and he’s got the following to prove it: With over 250 million listens on streaming platforms, a multi-continental touring resume, and notable support from tastemakers including Triple J, NPR Music, MTV, KCRW, DIY, Wonderland, and The Line of Best Fit, grentperez is on the precipice of something big. 

 

About Cavetown: 

For 23-year-old singer/songwriter Cavetown, making music typically involves excavating and exposing his most deeply hidden thoughts and feelings. “It’s a weird dynamic because a lot of the time I’m taking something that it’s hard for me to admit even to myself, then putting it into a song and sharing it with the entire world,” says the London based artist otherwise known as Robin Skinner. Since self-releasing his debut single at age 16, the Cambridge-based musician/producer has proven the disarming power of that outpouring, steadily amassing a devoted following and bringing his extraordinarily close-knit live show to venues across the globe. On his new album worm food, Cavetown delivers his most elaborately realized body of work to date, shaping his idiosyncratic storytelling into songs that ultimately give voice to our own most intimate emotions.
