Cage The Elephant Announce 45-Date North American Summer Tour Kicks Off On June 20th and New Album, Neon Pill, Out On May 17 Via Rca Records

SHARE NEW SONG “ OUT LOUD ”

Today, Cage The Elephant, the GRAMMY® Award winning rock band mark their return and announce both the release of their forthcoming sixth studio album, Neon Pill (May 17, RCA Records) and their 45-date North American summer tour. The new album finds the Kentucky-bred six piece—brothers Matthew Shultz [vocals] and Brad Shultz [guitar], Daniel Tichenor [bass], Jared Champion [drums], Nick Bockrath [lead guitar], and Matthan Minster [guitar, keys, backing vocals]— forging new musical ground, while maintaining their uncompromising creativity and wildly cathartic performances. “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.” The album is available to pre-order on all formats here .

Cage The Elephant’s 45-date North American US tour , produced by Live Nation, will kick off on June 20 in Salt Lake City with shows in cities including Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York City (full dates below), with support from Young The Giant & Bakar on most dates.  Tickets and VIP available for all dates will go on sale to the general public on Friday, March 8th at 10am local here , and numerous presales, including for the band’s Fan Club, Discord, and Spotify followers will begin on Tuesday, March 5th  at 10am local time. For all Canadian dates, American Express® Card Members can purchase tickets before the general public beginning Tuesday, March 5 at 10am local time through Thursday, March 7 at 10pm local time.

From their humble beginnings in Bowling Green, Kentucky, Cage The Elephant have gone on to become one of the generation’s premier rock bands. They have earned dozens of Gold, Platinum, and Multiplatinum certifications, tallied over 5 billion streams, and notched ten #1 records on Alternative Radio and 5 #1 records on Triple A Radio. Their previous two albums Tell Me I’m Pretty [2015] and Social Cues [2019] garnered consecutive Best Rock Album GRAMMY® Awards. They are maybe most celebrated for their live show. The stage is their home turf, where they are most comfortable, and their performances, ecstatic and unchained, as well as cathartic and soul bearing are what Neon Pill achieves in documenting.

Neon Pill, produced by John Hill, materialized during sessions at Sonic Ranch in El Paso, Electric Lady in New York, Sound Emporium in Nashville, Echo Mountain in North Carolina, and at Hill’s own studio in Los Angeles, and alchemized a season of tragedy and turbulence into the twelve tracks on their sixth full-length album. Nine months  into the pandemic, Matthew and Brad lost their father. The band weathered the back-to-back deaths of friends, while Matthew experience depression and a mental breakdown, culminating in hospitalization. Coming out on the other side, he learned quite a bit about himself, and gained a whole lot of strength and wisdom. Neon Pill came to life in the eye of the storm.

Today, the band share their new song, “ Out Loud ” the emotional centerpiece of Neon Pill . Backed by stark piano, Matthew’s bare delivery quakes as he sings, “Man, I really messed up now . ”   “Maybe it’s so straightforward and honest, because I didn’t know if it would see the light of day,” he admits. “‘Out Loud’ is very connected to my father. My dad’s the reason we discovered music in the first place. When he died, ‘Out Loud’ just poured out of me. My efforts towards the song were deeply rooted in paying honor to him, and I knew it meant a lot to Brad too,” he remarks. That, also in connection with the difficulties that I was dealing with at that time. It was almost a subconscious apology of sorts before I was fully capable of grasping the gravity of it all. Subconsciously working through it while channeling all of the adversity my family faced growing up coming full circle into my adult life in this one song.” The release of this song follows the latest single, “Neon Pill.” Listen to it here .

About Cage The Elephant

Since forming in 2006, Cage The Elephant have quietly bloomed as one of this generation’s premier rock bands buoyed by uncompromising creativity and wildly cathartic performances. Thus far, they have earned dozens of Gold, Platinum, and Multi Platinum certifications, tallied 5 billion streams and counting, and notched ten #1 records on Alternative Radio and 5 #1 records on Triple A Radio. The guys consecutively garnered two GRAMMY® Awards in the category of “Best Rock Album” for both Tell Me I’m Pretty [2015] and Social Cues [2019]. Of the latter, Entertainment Weekly raved, “The album’s introspection paired with its urgent energy make Cage The Elephant sound more passionate than ever.” In the meantime, their music has also surged through popular culture as “Cigarette Daydreams” graced the soundtrack of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 blockbuster video game, “Goodbye” appeared in The Summer I Turned Pretty , and “Trouble” powered a global campaign for Amazon Prime. Plus, they’re the rare force of nature who can inspire millions of TikTok creates or hold their own on stage with Dave Grohl and duet with Iggy Pop and Beck. The Kentucky-bred six-piece instinctually lean 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 alchemize a season of tragedy and turbulence into the twelve tracks on their sixth full-length album, Neon Pill [RCA Records].

Recent tour reviews

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.

Report as inappropriate

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.

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.

PHOENIX — Grammy Award-winning rock band Cage The Elephant announced a stop in Phoenix on its upcoming North American summer tour in conjunction with a new album.

“Neon Pill,” the band’s first album since 2019, is set to release on May 17, about one month before the tour kicks off on June 20 in Utah. The tour reaches Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre (previously known as Ak-Chin Pavilion) in Phoenix on July 5, the 10th show in the 45-date tour.

Presales start Tuesday, and tickets go on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. Young The Giant and Bakar will join Cage The Elephant for most of the tour, including the Phoenix stop.

Along with the tour announcement, the band released a new song “Out Loud,” which the band calls “the emotional centerpiece” of the new album. The album’s title track was released in January.

“To me, ‘Neon Pill’ is the first record where we were consistently uninfluenced, and I mean that in a positive way,” Cage The Elephant frontman Matthew Shultz said in the tour announcement. “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.”

Shultz, whose brother Brad plays guitar in the band, lost his dad during the first year of the pandemic, and the band also dealt with multiple deaths of friends. Shultz says these tribulations among others shaped the new song and album.

Cage The Elephant has been nominated for three Grammy awards and has won Best Rock Album twice for “Tell Me I’m Pretty” and most recently “Social Cues.”

Four of the band’s albums have reached the top 30 of the Billboard 200 list, led by “Thank You Happy Birthday,” which peaked at No. 2.

Cage the Elephant last performed in the Valley in July 2019 at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre, according to setlist.fm .

Cage the Elephant is officially dropping their next album later this spring and will head out on tour in the summer.

Neon Pill is shaping up to be the band’s most vulnerable album to date. The band recorded the project after a series of traumatic, life-altering events involving the deaths of several loved ones, including members Matthew and Brad Shult’s father, as well as Matthew’s mental health breakdown.

“To me,  Neon Pill is the first record where we were consistently uninfluenced, and I mean that in a positive way,” Matthew said in a statement. “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.”

Neon Pill will drop May 17. Shortly after that, the band will head out on an extensive North American tour beginning in June with supporting act Young the Giant. (Milennial dads are freaking out right now.)

Ahead of the album’s release, the band has dropped two new singles, “Neon Pill” and “Out Loud.”

Mike patton marks 25th anniversary of ipecac recordings label.

Mike Patton is celebrating the 25th anniversary of his record label, Ipecac Recordings.

The Faith No More frontman co-founded Ipecac alongside Greg Werckman on April 1, 1999, as a way to release new music with his side project Fantômas . In the last 25 years, Ipecac has also released albums by the Patton bands Faith No More and Mr. Bungle , as well as Melvins and Eagles of Death Metal .

“Ipecac was us realizing we needed to start creating our own universe, where albums that didn’t necessarily fit other, more traditional labels, could have a home,” Patton says.

In connection with the anniversary, Ipecac is putting out vinyl reissues of three Fantômas albums: 1999’s self-titled debut, which was Ipecac’s first release, 2001’s The Directors Cut and 2005’s Suspended Animation .
