Solo rock artist Wes Cage, son of Nicolas Cage, has released the official music video for his new single "The Wolf". This standalone track, which was made available via Pavement Entertainment, was co-written with Keith Wallen of BREAKING BENJAMIN.
Produced by Glitter And Gold Media and filmed at Le Grand Restaurant in Los Angeles, California, the clip shows Cage contending with darkness while searching for the light.
"I hope this song resonates with the masses and is embraced as a symbolic work of art that encourages triumph and hope," says Cage. "'The Wolf' is about the spiritual dichotomy of the higher and lower self."
Cage notes: "In the video, I play the two contrasting incarnations of the same character. His lower self, in his case, is one of destitution, zero self-control, addiction, oblivion and failure, while his higher self is depicted through a being who is of power, elevation, awareness, organization and overall success. Both forces live in us all."
Cage deals in myth, mysticism, and madness, conjuring deep connections with the unseen through the timeless power of primal sounds.
"The music we're doing is part of my essence and always needed to be released," Cage says. "Lyrically, 'The Wolf' touches on the dichotomy between the higher and lower selves. One represents strength, intelligence, organization, responsibility; the other, destitution, failure, depression, sadness."
