Here is the video for Cage the Elephant’s first single “Mess Around” from their recently released album Tell Me I’m Pretty. The 10-song record was produced by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, mixed by Tom Elmhirst (Amy Winehouse, Adele, Florence + the Machine) and recorded at Easy Eye Sound in Nashville, TN, near the band’s home town of Bowling Green, KY. One listen and you can tell as the track has a catchy touch.
