The band releases new video for Whole Wide World.

Grammy Award winners, Cage The Elephant have announced they’ll be releasing their unplugged live album, Unpeeled, worldwide this summer.

Unpeeled features eighteen curated songs from their past four albums as well as three interpretations of existing songs, performed live and stripped down and in some cases with a string quartet and a choir accompaniment.

Frontman Matt Shultz says of the record:

Many times you’re adding sonic layers looking for something to hide behind, and what you don’t realize is that that vulnerability and that nakedness might be the most compelling and interesting thing about the song.

Cage The Elephant have also shared music video for Whole Wide World, the song originally written and performed by Wreckless Eric, was re-imagined and recorded by the band at their sold-out, hometown show at the Ryman Auditorium.

Unpeeled is set for release on July 28th via RCA Records.
