Grammy Award winning rock band, Cage The Elephant, announced an intimate show at Los Angeles’ Echoplex on Tuesday, May 7th. The show is set to be a special warm up performance for their upcoming 45-date North American summer tour.
Recently the band shared their new single “Good Time,” off their forthcoming album Neon Pill, out May 17 via RCA Records. “Good Time” follows recent singles from the new album including “Out Loud” and “Neon Pill,” which scored the band their 11th No. 1 song on Billboard’s Alternative Chart.
Neon Pill finds the Kentucky-bred six piece—brothers Matthew Shultz and Brad Shultz, Daniel Tichenor, Jared Champion, Nick Bockrath, and Matthan Minster — forging new musical ground. “To me, Neon Pill is the first record where we were consistently uninfluenced, and I mean that in a positive way,” observes Matthew. “Everything is undoubtedly expressed through having settled into finding our own voice. We’ve always drawn inspiration from artists we love, and at times we’ve even emulated some of them to a certain degree. With this album, having gone through so much, life had almost forced us into becoming more and more comfortable with ourselves. We weren’t reaching for much outside of the pure experience of self expression, and simultaneously not necessarily settling either. We just found a uniqueness in simply existing.”
Cage The Elephant will kick off their North American tour on June 20 in Salt Lake City, UT and conclude on September 18 in Denver, CO. The 45-date tour includes stops in cities such as Seattle, Chicago, New York City, and more. Young The Giant and Bakar will act as support on selected dates.
