Biography
Since 2001, Iowa based FACECAGE have been sowing the seeds of a Midwestern rebellion. Through relentless touring and promotion, FACECAGE have succeeded in creating one of the largest fan bases in the Midwest and receiving critical accolades from their peers and the press. After touring the region and promoting their independent releases ‘FACECAGE’ (2002) and ‘II’ (2004), the band developed a live resume that included opening for national acts like: STAIND, STATIC X, NONPOINT, POWERMAN 5000, HED PE, RA, ADEMA, UNLOCO, DOUBLE DRIVE, LO PRO, SPINESHANK, GENITORTURERS, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY and PRONG.
Through their focus and independent promotion, FACECAGE built a touring network that spanned IOWA, MINNESOTA, WISCONSIN, ILLINOIS, NEBRASKA, TEXAS, LOUISIANA, TENNESSEE, MISSOURI, SOUTH DAKOTA, KANSAS and COLORADO. In January 2003, FACECAGE was invited to perform at the legendary SOUTH BY SOUTHWEST (SXSW) MUSIC AND INTERACTIVE FESTIVAL in Austin, Texas, as well as being added to the SXSW 2003 COMPILATION CD. Named ‘BEST INDEPENDENTLY RELEASED CD OF 2002’ by the METAL POST OF SAN FRANCISCO, and “ONE OF THE TOP 20 UNSIGNED BANDS” by XM Radio’s ‘LIQUID METAL’, FACECAGE can be heard in regular rotation on XM RADIO.
