Caged Animals

Brooklyn’s Caged Animals are an indie-pop quartet led by singer-songwriter Vincent Cacchione. Vin emerged from his roll fronting Soft Black (where he shared the stage with DIIV’s Zachary Cole Smith) to form Caged Animals in 2011, alongside his sister Talya, partner Magali Charron, and childhood friend Patrick Curry. Promptly signing to London’s Lucky Number Music, Caged Animals delivered two LP’s of their noir-tinged, pop music. Described by The New Yorker as a “hip-hop influenced Velvet Underground” and The Guardian as the perfect band to re-soundtrack Blue Velvet, Caged Animals defend the line between the timeless and cutting edge, while remaining direct, soulful, and uniquely unguarded.
