For the second week in a row, I have listened to the subscribers and done a ukulele cover of an album that has been so frequently requested by you a lot. Cage The Elephant are one of those bands that have been floating around my ether for a long time, but iv just never really grasped onto them. Not because I didn’t like them or anything, I loved Aint No Rest For The Wicked and James Brown. I just never spent the time to listen to any other material…..until now. What an album this is! It’s a furious, grand, lush and psychedelic experience through a melting pot of genres. My favourite song is Teeth, it’s got insane energy that’s just totally a bit of me right now lol.
I can feel it in my teeth and it’s driving me craaaazy!
