Bowling Green, Kentucky, United States (2005 – present)
Cage the Elephant are an alternative rock band which formed in 2005 in Bowling Green, Kentucky, United States. The band became surprisingly popular in mid-2008 when their single “Ain’t No Rest For the Wicked” hit #32 on the UK Singles Chart. The next year, it became a smash hit on American alternative radio, hitting #3 on Billboard’s Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart. The band consists of Matt Shultz (vocals), Brad Shultz (guitar), Lincoln Paris (guitar), Daniel Tichenor (bass, vocals) and Jared Champion (drums).
Bowling Green, Kentucky is a small town in the American South. It’s currently best known for manufacturing Chevrolet Corvettes and Fruit of the Loom underwear, but a brighter future lies just around the corner. Soon, the name of this no-horse municipality will be synonymous with thunderously sexy rock ‘n’ roll, in the rampant guise of local heroes Cage The Elephant.
Cage The Elephant - befits a band whose name finds room for the world’s largest land mammal - have a bottom-end you could hide a bus behind.
Their debut album combines Herculean riffs and grooves big enough to fill a canyon with juggernaut rock ‘n’ roll anthems to devastating effect. Led by brothers Matt and Brad Shultz, Cage are a mercurial mix of Southern charm wrapped around a tightly coiled spring of chaotic energy. Growing up at a time when the only option America offers young men of their social background is the chance to fight a war no-one understands or get a dead end job, Cage the Elephant are the mouth piece for disillusioned, working class America in 2008.
