97X Next Big Thing Legends
featuring Cage The Elephant
97X Next Big Thing Legends brings Cage The Elephant to The BayCare Sound with Dexter and The Moonrocks and Girl Tones! 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 countless #1 records. Best known for their hits such as Cigarette Daydreams, Come a Little Closer, and Ain't No Rest for the Wicked, this 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. A true 97X Next Big Thing Legend!
Dexter and The Moonrocks didn’t set out to change rock music - but that’s exactly what they’re doing. A fry cook, an oil field operator, a concrete surface decorator, and a kids’ baseball coach came together in West Texas, blending the country and western of their childhoods with the grunge they fell in love with as teenagers. That fusion became Western Space Grunge—a genre of their own making that turned them from a grassroots phenomenon into a force to be reckoned with. Their breakout single Sad in Carolina took them from small-town bars to seven weeks at #1 on U.S. Alternative radio. Now, with Ritalin—a stadium-ready anthem already climbing the charts—they're a band fully coming into their own.
Girl Tones, of planet Earth, are a high-energy rock duo brought to life by two sisters named Kenzie and Laila. Both classically trained musicians, Kenzie transitioned from cello to guitar and Laila from piano to drums in an effort to electrify sentient beings from this galaxy to the next. Their debut single Fade Away was produced by Brad Shultz of Cage The Elephant. The coming months will see more music and more shows to keep the earthlings entertained.
