John Cale is a Welsh musician, composer, and producer who has been active in the music industry for over five decades. He is best known for his work as a founding member of the Velvet Underground, one of the most influential bands in the history of rock music. Cale’s solo career has been equally impressive, with a diverse range of albums that showcase his talents as a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and experimental composer. His music is characterized by a unique blend of rock, classical, and avant-garde influences, and he has collaborated with a wide range of artists across different genres. He will perform at the Rockhal on March, 10th 2025.
John Cale is a key figure in the 1960s New York avant-garde music scene, known for rejecting conventional forms and embracing new technologies and sounds. As a founding member of the Velvet Underground, he helped shape rock music with drones, feedback, and classical elements. His Welsh heritage also influences his work, with albums like Paris 1919 exploring Welsh mythology. Cale has collaborated with many artists, including Lou Reed, Brian Eno, and Patti Smith, significantly impacting punk, post-punk, and alternative rock through his experimental approach.
