Gill Landry / opener Kiki Cavazos

Kiki Cavazos is a Montana-born songwriter whose life has followed the same restless roads that run through her songs. After leaving home young, she traveled through Alaska and Mexico before landing in New Orleans, where she formed Sundown with Alynda Lee Segarra of Hurray for the Riff Raff and Sam Doores of The Deslondes. Her spare, deeply lived-in songs draw on heartbreak, wandering, mountains, trains and the disappearing American West, earning comparisons to Townes Van Zandt, Blaze Foley and Lucinda Williams. Cavazos has appeared at Newport Folk Festival and opened for Big Thief and The Deslondes. Her 2026 albumGoodbye Blues, produced by Doores and released by Jalopy Records, captures her at her most elemental, with little more than acoustic guitar, voice and songs that feel less written than survived.
