The Cabin Project

The Cabin Project - a group of all women and non-binary Portland-based musicians - is a musical hybrid of orchestral folk, rock, and indie. The band’s sound stems from haunting choruses, harmonies, and orchestral elements. Sonically expansive, but heartfelt and intimate, The Cabin Project has used the last 14 years of writing and performing together to hone a sound all their own.

The Cabin Project, a project of Katie Sawicki - former-folksinger from Brooklyn, gone electric, is now defined by musical partner Zanny Geffel, rooted in jazz and orchestral inspired drums, and collaborators Kelly Clifton on bass and Mieke Bruggeman, Kris Doty on bass and Jean Mastaler on violin. Five studio records and hundreds of shows across the country later, the band knows how each other takes their coffee, the musical heroes that define each member’s individual sound, and the daily surprises a collective voice can yield in rehearsals.
