Cashes Rivers
Born from the unused baby name of a friend, Cashes Rivers didn’t take long to grow up in Des Moines, Iowa. After only three local shows there was enough buzz over his ambitious first EP, The Trees Will Clap For Us, that Cashes Rivers was invited to play 2009’s Gross Domestic Product and share the stage with touring acts such as The Academy Is…, The Morning Benders, Miniature Tigers, The Annuals, local favorites The Envy Corps and The Nada’s. Cashes Rivers’ attention grabbing sound is crafted by singer songwriter Matthew Garcia who pulls from his family’s abject past and community’s warm embrace to form exuberantly life affirming songs with a keen sense of the realities and pitfalls of that life affirmed. The band’s multi-instrumental indie folk, which often touts a full brass and string section, takes the home grown approach of Neutral Milk Hotel, the bombast of Band of Horses, and the summer fun of Pavement. Currently, Cashes Rivers is working with the Des Moines Music Coalition to increase the awareness of Midwest music, which included the playing 80/35 music festival held this year with Spoon, Yo La Tengo and Modest Mouse. Last year the band signed with local do-gooders Aqui Estamos Records. Along with playing shows and attending college, singer Matt is newly married and the couple plans on touring together extensively. Cashes Rivers will release their self-titled debut album on October 26, 2010 and is looking forward to playing a city near you!
