This argument is made often yet there are a number of problems. One major one is "so what"? So it is not in Scripture but does that mean it did not happen? One part of the Feast of Tabernacles was the fetching of water from the pool of Siloah, and pouring it with wine upon the altar. It happened. Fact. Now where do we find that in the Bible?
I would posit that a YHWH enthronement festival took place as part of the Feast of Tabernacles (Cf.
The Evidence for an Autumnal New Year in Pre-Exilic Israel Reconsidered)

That does not mean that the psalms were not used as part of an annual celebration when the ark went up to the temple.

Can you prove that?
