Biografie

  • Cage The Elephant are an alternative rock band from Bowling Green, Kentucky, USA, who formed in 2006. They are known for raucous live shows and eclectic alt. rock that takes influence from classic rock, the blues, funk and indie rock.

    There is a crippling irony that comes with lamenting the death of guitar music. The gist of it is that every bunch of hand wringing fools wailing that rock music is dead or dying are comparing todays rock scene with their interpretation of the rock scene of a decade ago.

    However, even with all their looking backwards, they aren’t able to see that there have always been people like them complaining that rock and roll music is dead. Just as there are always going to be great rock bands around that the next generation of hand wringing fools will wish they were around to see in their prime.

    Cage The Elephant are proof that true rock and roll is in as rude health as it’s ever been. They have everything, the riffs, the songs, the attitude and the out of control live shows that make your average rock band into legends.

    Coming on like The Pixies covering the Allman Brothers, the band have taken their uncompromising rock and wrought a gold album out of it (in the form of their self-titled debut), the patronage of the likes of U2, and concerts supporting The Black Keys and the Foo Fighters.

    The latter of which led to one of the most memorable gigs of their career. When drummer Jared Champion’s appendix burst before a concert supporting Dave Grohl’s band at the Los Angeles Forum, Grohl himself stepped up and filled in on drums in front of an audience of nearly eighteen thousand.

    No band who hasn’t earned their stripes gets an opportunity like that. If it’s good enough for Grohl, it’s good enough for any self-respecting rocker, and their story has only just begun.

  • Cage the Elephant

    I bought my ticket as soon as they went on sale last year and I was excitedly waiting since that moment.

    When I got there, I worked my way to the front and stood at the barrier just to the right of the stage directly in front of the speakers. It was almost the perfect place, with a great view of the stage, although I couldn't hear anything the next day because the speakers were so loud. (It was definitely worth it though!)

    The opening act, Chrome Pony, were pretty good and they warmed the crowd up for the main event. I'm sure they have a bright future ahead of them.

    Then Cage the Elephant came onstage. The crowd immediately began jumping and singing along to Cry Baby, off of their new album. The energetic crowd continued throughout as lead singer Matt Schulz jumped into the crowd and danced his way through fan favourite songs like In One Ear and Spiderhead.

    All of the fans urged them back on for an encore when they left the stage - and what an encore it was. They played a couple of softer songs, Shake Me Down (a personal favourite of mine) and Cigarette Daydreams before Schulz left the stage again. A few seconds later he returned shirtless and began to crowdsurf as the band finished playing the hard-hitting Sabertooth Tiger. Schulz managed to crowdsuf his way to the balcony (with a bit of help from me) and finished the show by diving off of the balcony to be caught by the legions of adoring fans below.

    All in all, a perfect gig from my favourite band. They played a lot of their new album, Tell Me I'm Pretty, but also made sure that they played all of the old fan favourites too. The atmosphere was electric throughout, with fans jumping in time and singing along to all of the songs and Matt Schulz may be the most energetic and entertaining frontman in rock music at the moment.

  • We went to Reading Festival in 2014 to see Arctic Monkeys. We decided to check out some of the other bands playing to make the best of it. Cage the Elephant were among those bands and we liked their songs so we went to see them. It was a good show and one thing about it that stood out the most was how lead singer Matt Schultz joins the crowd.

    This time, we went to see them at The Gorge Amphitheater. The drive was long, we were charged for extra miles, the beer was very expensive, we couldn't find anything decent to eat and we paid for better parking (unnecessarily, as we later found out) but we're probably not going to remember all that as this might have been one of the best concerts we've been to so far. I really like Cage the Elephant but they're not one of my top favorite bands and yet we had so much fun at that concert. They're so good live. I know I'm repeating myself but it was so fun, I wasn't sure if my face was numb because of the beer or from smiling throughout the show.

    They mostly played songs off their last two albums and just one from their first and one from their second, but I didn't feel like anything was missing (even though great songs like "Right Before My Eyes" were left out). Just as in that Reading concert, singer Matt Shultz mixed in with many parts of the crowd a lot. We had good seats but we weren't that close to the stage and yet at some point I have been almost within arm's reach of him. On stage, he was acting kind of strange and definitely dancing and moving a lot. That was quite entertaining. His brother, guitarist Brad Schultz, also mixes in with the crowd. They also had flames on stage even though his mother's words echo "baby don't you play with fire" (from Too Late to Say Goodbye).

    I hope my next chance to see them live arrives soon.

  • I have been following Cage the Elephant since they were a small, local band in Bowling Green, KY. I saw several of their shows before they “blew up” and what struck me was how much they reminded me of early 90s grunge bands.

    I saw them again in 2012 in Bowling Green and not a lot has changed in regard to their live show, except for the normal maturation that comes with age and experience. Their shows are an energizing old school rock concert. It is five guys on stage pouring their hearts and souls into the rock music that they love.

    Matt Schultz sings and, at times, screams, with every ounce of power in his body. He is one of the few singers working today who has mastered the art of the seamlessly transitioning from quietly singing to exploding with loud, frenetic energy in a matter of seconds.

    I have loved the Cage the Elephant shows that I have been to. I made sure to get there early and get to the front of the mosh pit. Matt Schultz interacts with the crowd and the energy near the stage is always most exciting. Schultz also has a reputation for crowd surfing and has done it at all of the shows I have been to. Be prepared to catch him when he leaps, because it is almost guaranteed to happen.

    Whether it is through their musical performance on stage or carrying their lead singer through the crowd, a Cage the Elephant show will not disappoint.

  • You don't even understand the sick passion that I have for CTE. I love them so much and they give it their all every concert. I saw them 3 times this year. Once at Terminal 5. I was second row in GA and I got to know Brad personally simply because this man jumped ontop of me haha. I fell back and so did my friends but I was still holding him and I couldn't help but laugh because HOLY GODD BRAD SHULTZ IS CROWD SURFING ONTOP OF MEEE!! Matt loves the crowd and is always jumping in and standing up on them.

    I saw them again in NJ at the Starland Ballroom. That was great too. It was such a small venue that no matter where you were standing you felt as if he is singing directly to you. I love the crowd too, they're so nice. That concert was fantastic and the lighting was beautiful!

    I also saw them at the Barclay's Center opening for The Black Keys. Once again Matt is running around on stage and putting on this crazy show. The band themselves play amazing music that puts me in this trance that words cannot describe what it feels like. No matter what mood I'm in I'm listening to them. They are just too good. Ridiculously amazing I mean. I feel like I know them personally just form how many times I've seen them and I will be attending their shows for the rest of my life. Does that answer your question?

  • I saw Cage the elephant at the upstate concert hall in clifton park. A horrible place for a concert to say the least, and I was a bit queasy that the concert might not turn out to be 'that awesome'. Boy! I was, fortunately, so wrong and the event turned out to be fantastic - probably on par or even a little better than the Arctic Monkeys at the MSG earlier this year! Need I say more! The sound of the band was fantastic and the songs sounded even better during the live show than the recordings. Matt Shultz is the most energetic performer I have ever seen. They performed for an hour and some more and each song packed in so much punch and energy with Matt doing his crazy , entire body rocking dance. Almost every other song he was crowd surfing while other folks in the audience were crowd surfing around him. Totally crazy and fun! 'Back Against The Wall' was probably the highlight of the entire performance with every person in the crowd jumping and rocking out with yours truly having gone completely nuts with his energy sapping, thumping rock dance. The end of the show was truly amazing with Matt's head almost touching the ceiling! Instead of jumping into the crowd this time, he was standing upright being held by the crowd above their heads. Truly a head bowing (and neck breaking) performance!

  • This concert was AMAZING. I have been a fan since 2008 and have been dying to see them since, I would dream about how perfect the band would be live, read reviews from other people who have been and with every day of waiting my hopes got higher and higher for this concert. It EXCEEDED even my wildest dreams about how brilliant it was. The passion, the rhythm, the energy, the light show, it all worked together in the most beautiful harmony. It also happened to be Bradley's birthday and it was so beautiful to see how much of a fuss his brother made about him. I love the fact that they are so human as well, not afraid to get down and dirty with the crowd. During the first song and many others after, Brad just jumped off of the stage and alternated crowd surfing and just shredding while surrounded in the crowd. It was amazing with a perfect song line up and a 20 minute encore including everyone singing happy birthday to Brad. If you're on the fence about seeing Cage the Elephant live, don't. Even the pure energy is enough to make the experience worth it.

  • I have only seen videos of grunge bands in the early 90s performing in small venues. The show that Cage the Elephant put on at Mercy Lounge on June 24, 2014, the crowd & band interaction were infectious, the music was incredible, and the band was into the show from the first drum beat.

    The Mercy holds around 500 people for standing room only & the show was sold out. This small venue and crowd size increased the fervor of action and interaction. Cage's lead singer, Matthew Shultz, was sweating as soon as he hit the stage and he and the entire band played like they had nowhere important to be the next day. They performed for over an hour and a half and hit all that songs one would want, like "Shake Me Down", "Ain't not Rest for the Wicked", "Come a Little Closer", & "In One Ear".

    If you can catch Cage in any venue, it should be a show to remember. But if you can see them in a smaller venue like the Mercy, it will be a show you talk about for days to come.

  • Brilliant.

    I almost missed the first support, caught the last track only. 2nd support SWMRS were energetic young punks. Did their job OK, some of the tracks were catchy.

    A good wait for Cage to come on. But it was worth the wait.

    A very very good set. Plenty of energy from the band, especially the Schultz brothers, including a stage dive each, and Matt finishing one song while standing on the hands of the audience.

    Music and vocals were spot on. I was near the front and so did not see much of the audience, but there seemed to be massive buzz n the air.

    Seeing these guys was on the top of my list of must sees. As a child of the 60s I have seen plenty of concerts, this was definitely up with the best of them. I left well satisfied.

    The venue was good too. A step above the soulless, cavernous space of the Leeds arena.

  • You know when you've heard of a band, and you know like 2-3 songs of theirs but aren't sure if you like them or not.. Cage the Elephant was that way for me. I definitely had mixed feelings about them at first, but after seeing them live, wow. They changed my mind instantly. Not only do they sound exactly the same live as they do on the radio or on their albums, but they know how to put on a show! From the moment they walked onto stage they had me hooked. Now I'm looking more into them and love just about everything I'm hearing so far. Seeing them live has potentially given me a new favorite band! If you haven't dove into cage the elephant.. Quit waiting around. Their music is fantastically written and wonderfully performed. Do yourself a favor, check em out and see them live!

  • What a show! it was amazing and out of this world. I do like Cage the Elephant, but I did not know I LOVE Cage the Elephant until Matt Schultz came on stage and did his hip writhing, he just had so much energy and that writhing, I need to live in that hip movement. The crowd was really lively and there was crowd surfing and jumping on stage and Matt and the rest of the guys just went with it.

    Everyone should see a Cage the Elephant show to feel that euphoria that happens when a a band is truly electrifying on stage, and Cage the Elephant is electrifying.

    Cage the Elephant was part of a four band performance for a tour called Spring Splash that included Bear Hands, Foals, and Silversun Pickups. By far the best performers of the night.
