“Great bands, iconic setting... It’s definitely one of the coolest festivals we’ve been a part of.”

- Uncle Lucius

Co-founded by West Texas troubadour Red Shahan, his bandmate Parker Morrow, and Monument Lake Resort proprietor Brett McGraw, the festival is a labor of love, rooted in the spirit of bringing people together in the stunning wilderness of southern Colorado.


Set against the backdrop of Monument Lake Resort, this event is more than just a music festival—it’s a journey back to a simpler time, where the rural past and a diverse present blend seamlessly. Here, folks from all cultures and walks of life come together in one unified spirit to celebrate the best in Americana music amidst breathtaking mountain vistas, clear waters, and the tranquility of nature.

“Caveman Music Festival has been one of my favorites I’ve ever had the opportunity to be a part of.  The attention to detail, the amazing diversity of artists, and obviously, the views are literally unmatched in today’s mess of concrete jungles.  I’m a lifelong fan of Caveman, and always will be.” 

- Grady Spencer
