Since forming in 2006, Cage The Elephant has quietly bloomed as one of this generation's premier rock bands.
The group of six has garnered two Grammy Awards in the category of "Best Rock Album" for both "Tell Me I'm Pretty" (2015) and "Social Cues" (2019). Entertainment Weekly raved about the song "Tell Me I'm Pretty," stating, "The album's introspection paired with its urgent energy make Cage The Elephant sound more passionate than ever."
To date, the group of six have earned dozens of gold, platinum and multi-platinum certifications along with tallying more than 5 billion streams and notching 10 No. 1 records on Alternative Radio and five No. 1 records on Triple A Radio.
Cage The Elephant's music has also surged through popular culture as the song "Cigarette Daydreams" graced the soundtrack of "Marvel's Spider-Man 2" blockbuster video game; the song "Goodbye" appeared in the Amazon Prime TV series "The Summer I Turned Pretty," and the song "Trouble" powered a global campaign for Amazon Prime. Plus, Cage The Elephant is the rare force of nature that can inspire millions of TikTok creators and hold their own on stage with the likes of Dave Grohl and duet with Iggy Pop and Beck.
The Kentucky-bred six-piece instinctually leans on their enduring bond as both musicians and friends to get through anything and everything. Together, the band members make sense of life's unpredictability and uncertainty via music. Moments of elation might take the form of sticky hooks, swaggering rhythms or upbeat guitars, while tense riffs and jittery grooves could give shape to feelings of anxiety, doubt or instability. As such, the group fearlessly alchemizes a season of tragedy and turbulence into the twelve tracks on their sixth full-length and latest album, "Neon Pill" of RCA Records.
Fans can enjoy Cage The Elephant's uncompromising creativity and wildly cathartic performance on Friday, November 8, at the 2024 SEMA Fest at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
