Cage the Elephant
Monday, January 24th
9 pm
Meyer Hall

We are pleased to announce that Cage the Elephant will perform at Ex’pression College on January 24th. The Ex’pression Session is another collaboration between Ex’pression College and Live 105 radio. The band will perform a short set for students, faculty, and staff.

When Cage the Elephant released their self-titled debut in 2009, they were heralded as saviors of slacker funk-punk thanks to their hit “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked.” The title turned out to be more prescient than they’d bargained for: the band has been battling adversity of many stripes. But the struggles never pushed singer Matt Shultz, guitarist Brad Shultz, bassist Daniel Tichenor, guitarist Lincoln Parish, and drummer Jared Champion off track – they only strengthened the group’s bond and fueled the revved-up roar of its new album, Thank You Happy Birthday, set for release on January 11, 2011, which promises to launch the new year with a ferocious kick of gut-grabbing rock & roll.
