Kara Cavanaugh, known for her many years touring the country with Terrapin Flyer, Melvin Seals and members of the Grateful Dead, is thrilled to introduce you to a side of her yet unseen in New York playing eclectic sets with her own band: KCB (Kara Cavanaugh Band).

​

KCB covers different genres of music that span the decades including pop, rock, Americana, blues, country, and more.

​

Since moving to New York, Kara has performed at notable venues such as the Iridium, Brooklyn Bowl, LPR (Le Poisson Rouge), Garcia’s, among others.

​

Kara's debut album: “Ain’t Gonna Run” was released in 2018 produced by Packy Lundholm (Theo Katzman, I Fight Dragons) and Dan Moulder (Tom Schraeder & His Ego). Her album is a diverse collection that features her musical influences ranging from Laurel Canyon folk, powerful piano ballads, sultry R&B, and cinematic soundscapes.

​

"You nailed this album...sounds phenomenal." ⁃ Meagan Panici, WZRD 88.3 FM Chicago

 

"I am really impressed with the production and your powerful voice. I think you are ready for the next chapter in your life." ⁃ Melvin Seals, Jerry Garcia Band

​

Following that, in 2021 she released her single: “If You See Him: featuring D2G” produced again by Packy Lundholm. An R&B song that shows off her vocal control with a memorable hook.

​

Kara is currently working on two new singles that will be released this coming year in 2026!
