Philadelphia's lo-fi punk rock trio Cayetana rose from the same D.I.Y. scene that produced contemporaries Waxahatchee, Radiator Hospital, and Modern Baseball. Members Kelly Olsen and Allegra Anka first met while enrolled in a New York college before moving back to their hometown of Philadelphia, where they met Augusta Koch. None of them had any formal training on their respective instruments, but they forged ahead with making music on borrowed equipment, channeling the attitude of riot grrrl outfits Sleater-Kinney and Bikini Kill alongside the indie rock influences of Guided by Voices and the Mountain Goats. A self-titled, self-released EP arrived ahead of their first album Nervous Like Me, which was released in 2014. Two years later, the band returned with the Tired Eyes EP; in 2017, they released their second full-length New Kind of Normal on their own Plum Records label. ~ Scott Kerr
