  • CTE Bio Unpeeled
    Cage the Elephant UNPEELED You can’t talk about music in this century without mentioning Cage the Elephant. They are the last of the great bands — or perhaps, based on new album Unpeeled, the first of the great new ones. They trace their nervy, seditious lineage from that same uncompromising place that gave us Between the Buttons-era Stones, the Pixies, the Stone Roses, the Velvet Underground and Iggy Pop. In fact, it was as if Bowling Green, Kentucky’s second-most famous export had been born full-blown and knowing when they first burst out on a stage in the early days of 2006, regurgitated whole out of the music's murky past with their platinum hair, sunglasses and Doc Martens. Mysterious, a little troubled, with an unstudied cool, a reckless charm and the striking looks of the young Yardbirds and the rakish confidence of the early Stones. “We had this picture of what a rock ‘n’ roll band was supposed to be when we started,” says vocalist Matt Shultz, who fronts the sextet comprising brother Brad on rhythm guitar, drummer Jared Champion, bassist Daniel Tichenor, lead guitarist Nick Bockrath and keyboardist Matthan Minster. “In my younger years, I definitely tried to play into personas that often hindered the material’s ability to be truly effective. Then as years passed I started wanting to shed some of that creative baggage.” That might have been the most important lesson the band learned working with Dan Auerbach, who produced Cage’s 2015 Grammy- winning Tell Me I’m Pretty album. He helped them chip away at all the things that stood between them and their songs, uncovering their own raw power.

For more than an hour, the band played crowd favorites including “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked,” and “Come a Little Closer,” along with others like “Cigarette Daydreams,” “Spiderhead,” “Mess Around” and many others.

  • Rubber Ball” Via Rolling Stone
    CAGE THE ELEPHANT PREMIERES LIVE PERFORMANCE VIDEO FOR “RUBBER BALL” VIA ROLLING STONE NEW ALBUM UNPEELED OUT JULY 28TH WORLDWIDE VIA RCA RECORDS TELL ME I’M PRETTY WINNER OF 2017 GRAMMY® AWARD FOR “BEST ROCK ALBUM” (New York - July 25, 2017) This morning, GRAMMY® Award winner Cage The Elephant premieres the live performance video for their song "Rubber Ball," featured on their forthcoming album UNPEELED, via Rolling Stone. The song, which originally appeared on the Cage The Elephant’s 2011 album Thank You, Happy Birthday, was recorded live at their sold-out, hometown show at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, and you can watch it here. Matt Shultz, lead singer, tells Rolling Stone: “We recorded this at The Ryman. It was always a dream of ours to perform at this hometown venue and we felt something spiritual from the moment we stepped on stage. The song ‘Rubber Ball’ Daniel and I wrote in our first band house. It’s about excess in all aspects. It’s about trying to gain control and not being able to but having love in your heart.” Cage The Elephant will release UNPEELED worldwide on July 28th via RCA Records. The new album was recorded over a series of intimate shows in cities including Los Angeles, Washington DC, Knoxville, and Nashville where the band performed in a stripped-down arrangement with a string quartet and additional percussion. UNPEELED features twenty-one tracks: eighteen curated songs from their past four albums plus three reimagined versions of existing songs. Said front man Matt Shultz about the inspiration behind the album: “Many times you’re adding sonic layers looking for something to hide behind, and what you don’t realize is that that vulnerability and that nakedness might be the most compelling and interesting thing about the song.” Preorder the album here.
