Gothic Theatre
Chris Cagle
In his debut CD entitled Play It Loud, Chris Cagle unleashes his unique version of high octane country music that’s like an icy glass of Jolt Cola and a pair of well-worn cowboy boots. In the tradition of the Charlie Daniels Band and Travis Tritt, Play It Loud blends the soul of rock and country to create a new sound that remains rough around the edges.
With his musical palette, Chris creates a portrait that spans the gamut of emotion, from capturing the anticipation of a Friday night out with the boys and the fond remembrances of high school years to the passion of loving a soulmate or the heartbreak of the one that got away. Billboard Magazine describes Chris Cagle’s music as ‘an all-out assault on the senses.’ The review states, ‘In a day and time where people seem much too willing to play it safe and release vanilla music, it’s nice to hear something that has the blistering energy of a liquored-up bar band on a sweaty Saturday night. Newcomer Chris Cagle unleashes a torrent of vocal intensity on this uptempo debut that is quickly winning support at country radio.
