Cavetown + Dreamer Isioma

Since uploading his first songs to YouTube as a teenage boy in Cambridge, England, Cavetown’s Robin Skinner has become an anchor for a generation of listeners who’ve found not just solace in his music, but a kind of spiritual room to grow up in. His catalog, spanning lo‑fi ditties and indie rock charmers, has amassed billions of streams, earned a 6× Platinum certification, and inspired high-profile features in the New York Times, Rolling Stone and Billboard. His global touring career has taken him from sold‑out clubs to massive tours with AJR and Pierce The Veil, as well as festival main stages at Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, Corona Capital, Primavera Sound, and many more.

His new album, Running With Scissors, asks: What happens when you leave that room you grew up in and finally look yourself squarely in the eye? Written on the other side of a two‑year healing process, Running With Scissors finds Skinner aged up and galvanized. That bravery extends to the songwriting itself: the album is threaded with intergenerational tension, familial excavation, and an unflinching exploration of who Skinner wants to become as an adult.
