Caleb Caudle & The Sweet Critters touring all over Europe

A nocturnal collection of songs about the things that keep you up at night by an artist deeply in tune with himself, Caleb Caudle’s last album Sweet Critters is an exercise in finding clarity at that ungodly morning hour when memories of the past and anxiety about the future slowly fade into something more like precious, peaceful alone time in the present. Through sometimes shadowy arrangements that creep and lurk, Caudle continues to mine both the brightest and murkiest corners of his imagination, finding that purest of points where tenderness and grit collide, inspired by musical heroes like Buddy Miller and Guy Clark, and mentors like Elizabeth Cook and John Paul White. White and Ben Tanner co-produced Sweet Critters, and Allison Russell and Aoife O’Donovan lend their vocals to album standouts “Heaven Sometimes” and “The Brim,” respectively.

These songs are a showcase of Caudle’s singular command of language. He sees the world through a hyperreal lens wholly unique to him, one that renders dank humidity “horsefly heat,” a moody sky “cast iron skillet” dark, or a loved one’s “wind chime of a smile.” For Caudle, details are the last frontier in a world where thousands of new songs are created every day. As such, he weaves his intricate tales of redemption, sacrifice, forgiveness, and loss with the colorful threads of living, breathing characters and all the rich idiosyncrasies and ephemera that fill out their worlds.

Caudle starts his European tour in support of the record in Finland and will be seen all over the continent:
