Cage the Elephant are known for energetic live performances and for possessing an eclectic sound. The band’s first album is influenced by classic rock, funk, and blues music. However, the band’s second album, Thank You, Happy Birthday, displayed heavy influence by punk rock and bands such as the Pixies and Nirvana, while Melophobia was a concerted effort by the band to find its own distinct musical identity, and earned them aGrammy Award nomination in 2015 for Best Alternative Music Album.
