Seeing that renewed energy and perspective carry into this next chapter is incredibly exciting. Welcoming a band of this caliber to Big Loud Rock, alongside the incredible team at Q Prime, is a huge moment for us. We couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead.” “It’s definitely a new chapter,” Cage the Elephant’s Matt Shultz added. “We always try to write from life experience. Whatever we’re going through will undoubtedly make its way into the music. Even when going through difficult seasons, life can still prove to have no shortage of light memories. I’ve learned we don’t realize the things that we’re capable of making it through until we actually face them. Having fond memories during difficult times, is a blessing to say the least — which some of these songs do for certain. Navigating troubled waters many times reminds us how extraordinary life truly is. Life’s beautiful. It takes peaks and valleys to illustrate that beauty.” The Kentucky-formed band is known for a steady string of hits including “Metaverse,” “Neon Pill,” “Come A Little Closer” and “Shake Me Down.” The group’s Grammy wins include two trophies for best rock album, for 2015’s Tell Me I’m Pretty and 2019’s Social Cues . They’ve earned 13 No. 1 hits on Billboard ‘s Alternative Airplay chart.
