Cage The Elephant kicked off their support dates with the Foo Fighters on Sunday night at the Pepsi Center in Denver, CO. Soon after the show drummer Jared Champion’s appendix burst, leaving the band no choice but to cancel last night’s show. However, hours before show time, Dave Grohl came to the rescue and played drums during the bands set at the Maverick Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. Read about it HERE!
Released on January 11th, Thank You Happy Birthday (RCA Records) has garnered the band rave reviews from the likes of Rolling Stone, New York Times, LA Times, USA Today, Entertainment Weekly, People and Alternative Press who heralded it “one of the best rock albums of the year.” “Shake Me Down” was at #1 at Alternative Rock for five weeks and has been on the chart for a total of 30 weeks thus far. With their performances on The Late Show with David Letterman and Jimmy Kimmel Live!, it’s easy to see why Rolling Stone named Cage The Elephant “one of rock’s best young bands.”
