The Cab releases highly anticipated third album, ‘Chasing Crowns’
After a period of more than ten years without a full-length album, The Cab, a pop-rock band from Las Vegas, has made a triumphant return with their third studio album, Chasing Crowns. The album, spanning 18 tracks, is the band’s first release in 15 years, marking a significant milestone in their musical journey and ushering in a new era for the group.
Written over a decade in various cities, Chasing Crowns is a deeply personal project that reflects the band’s growth both musically and emotionally. It weaves together stories shaped by time, distance, and lived experiences, carrying a message that the pursuit of success and status is overshadowed by the impact we have on others.
Frontman Alex DeLeon and his bandmates describe Chasing Crowns as a labour of love, with a collection of songs that embrace imperfection and draw inspiration from the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi, which focuses on highlighting flaws rather than concealing them. The album is a testament to their dedication and resilience, having been forged through years of uncertainty and perseverance.
Musically, Chasing Crowns showcases The Cab’s ability to seamlessly blend genres while staying true to their anthemic pop-rock sound. From the energetic guitar-driven tracks like “Locked And Loaded” to the catchy hooks of “Back From The Dead,” the album strikes a balance between high-impact rock and more introspective moments. Songs like “Sweet Kerosene” highlight their talent for crafting radio-friendly melodies, while “Hellraiser” serves as a heartfelt tribute to DeLeon’s daughter.
Incorporating material from their 2025 EP Road To Reign: A Prelude, Chasing Crowns bridges the gap between their comeback and this fully realized album. The songs come together to form a cohesive narrative that reflects the band’s journey and sets the stage for their future endeavors.
Following a successful 2025, including festival appearances, sold-out shows, and a reconnection with fans worldwide, The Cab is back in full force. Their dynamic live performances and emotionally charged songwriting have solidified their place in the music scene, leading up to the release of Chasing Crowns.
To celebrate the album’s release, The Cab will kick off their Back From The Dead Tour across the United States in the spring, marking their first headlining tour in over a decade. Fans can expect a powerful and memorable live experience from a band that has come back stronger than ever.
