Caravan of ThievesSubmitted photo

Every year in early September, when the Sisters Folk Festival is done and attendees are bouncing around the streets of Sisters with a weekend’s worth of songs buzzing in their heads, one or two or three artists have made such an impression that they become the talk of the post-fest set.

This year, one of those bands was Caravan of Thieves, a quartet from Connecticut that plays a likable blend of gypsy swing and folk-rock, slathered in the kind of elegant Americana melodies that have made stars out of bands like the Avett Brothers and The Lumineers. With jazzy and global influences, this Caravan roams a bit farther afield than those two names imply, but they certainly belong in that company in terms of writing memorable songs that sound like they’re being played by friends in your living room.

At the folk fest, Caravan of Thieves played four sets in three days (most SFF artists play only two days), wowing audiences all along the way. And one of those sets was at The Belfry, where the band will return on Sunday night.

Caravan of Thieves; 7 p.m. Sunday; $15 plus fees in advance at www.bendticket.com, $18 at the door, $10 students; The Belfry, 302 E. Main Ave., Sisters; www.belfryevents.com or 541-815-9122.
