CAGE started off in Carrara, Italy, in 1987; after some changes the line-up includes:…………(NAMES)
The group played many gigs above all in the centre and in the north of Italy.
They took part in several shows and competitions such as Savona Rock (final trial at the Palasport, Savona 1989), Festival Europa Spettacolo (final trial in Chianciano Terme, Siena 1990), Musica Nelle Scuole (final trial at the Piper, Roma 1990) and Yamaha Band Explosion (final trial at the City Square, Milano 1991).
In 1992 they signed a contract with the record company TOAST, from Torino, and published the single The View, included in the compilation Punto Zero (N°8, 1992). The following year they recorded their first album, TheFeeble-Minded Man (TDLP880, 1993), a suite dating back to 1987-88.
In 1994 they appeared at the Video Music TV show Segnali Di Fumo where they also presented their live video clip.
From the end of that year the members of the group decided to work individually and to experiment different kinds of music, like Jazz.
In the year 2000 they joined again and devoted themselves to a new project which is focused on Progressive Rock, enriched by influences from other music genres, as the CD Demo recorded in March 2001 clearly shows.
In 2003 the band record a complete CD containing songs from 1987 to 1992, suite included.
In July 2003 CAGE partecipated in the I-TIM Tour rock contest (100 bands were selected among more than 4000 groups...); the band won the Senigallia (AN) session and partecipated in the final trial in Milan on the 5th September... The video clip showing the performance in Senigallia was broadcast on the satellite channel Rock Tv (SKY). In 2004 the group signed a contract with [FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']Musea Records [/FONT]and in 2005 came out "87/94". This release was a good achievement( I MEAN IT WAS A SUCCESS) ; it won praise from music critics in specialized magazines on the web and enjoyed great success in many European countries as well as in Japan.
