Originating in Bowling Green, Kentucky, in 2006, American rock band Cage The Elephant Lead vocal Matt Shultz, guitarists Brad Shultz and Nick Bockrath, bassist Daniel Tichenor, and drummer Jared Champion make up the band. Songs like "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked," "Shake Me Down," and "Come A Little Closer" have helped Cage The Elephant climb to the top of the charts and become among the largest rock bands in the present decade.
Following four highly praised studio albums, Cage The Elephant plans to make a tour comeback in 2022. This is preparing for the 2019 Social Cues album release by the band. Social cues were somewhat different for Cage The Elephant, but this was obvious from more serious lyrics addressing mental health issues and adulthood. Songs like "Black Madonna," "House of Glass," and "Ready to Let Go," are loved by both critics and fans.
Starting their 2022 adventure on May 27, at the Boston Calling Music Festival in Allston, Massachusetts, Cage The Elephant is among the main events of the three-day celebration with their gig slated for Sunday night, May 29th. From there, Cage The Elephant will tour Europe in June presenting shows at the Mad Cool Festival in Spain and Rock am Ring in Germany.
For one whole month in July, Cage The Elephant will be touring amphitheaters throughout the United States and Canada. Among other venues, the tour will transit The Forum in Los Angeles, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, and the Budweiser Stage in Toronto. Cage The Elephant will travel with the young blues rock band Welshly Arms.

Cube Having been active for sixteen years, the Elephant is well-known for their crazy shows including vocalist Matt Shultz, who likes to lose himself in his dance. Usually highly involved, Matt is seen leaping over the audience or ascending some scaffolding midway through the song. The band needs to respond to the reaction of the audience in this dynamic, live show. Fans of Cage The Elephant should be ready to groove through cup songs, moshing, and crowd-surfing.
Regarding the song lineup for this tour, Cage The Elephant should play most of the hit tunes like "Spiderhead," "Cigarette Daydreams," and "Cold Cold Cold." Of course, there will also be plenty of music from Social Cues, which will allow listeners to hear some of those fresh tunes closer. Some songs they have covered, including Pixies' "Where is My Mind" or OutKast's "Hey Ya," have even been seen to be periodically performed throughout their shows.
One thing is certain while seeing Cage The Elephant: the performance will be vibrant, chaotic, and enjoyable regardless of the songs selected. Cage The Elephant is elevated to the level of the major attraction at the festivals and venues by the performance and music intensity. Should you be someone eager to see the performance this summer, it is advised to reserve this excursion. Seeing this very vibrant Kentucky rock band play on stage and follow their natural calling is inspiring.
This implies you should acquire your tickets fast whether you are a longtime fan or a new follower of Cage The Elephant and want to see them on their 2022 tour. It seems to be a series of amazing summer performances throughout North America and Europe. A Cage The Elephant performance is the epitome of terrific live rock and roll, whether it's at one of the many smaller-scale amphitheaters or during a big festival. Just be ready for Matt Shultz to go ballistic on the stage using dancing routines and of course, rock the stage with incredible crowd surfing as the vibrant music of garage rock comes alive. For one of the most vivacious bands of today, this will be an amazing journey.
