Shortly after learning how to talk, the Cain siblings were harmonizing with each other. The two sisters and brother from Hartselle, Ala. have shared a lot over the years, but their passion for music is what has brought them together as The Cains, a country band with unique harmonies and a variety of influences.
Taylor, Madison and Logan Cain are not only singers and songwriters, but also multifaceted entertainers and musicians who play guitar, piano, bass, harmonica and more. It all started when eldest sibling, Taylor, learned her first song on the piano at 5 years old and, a few years later, began teaching her younger siblings to sing harmony with her.
A few years of practice and three college degrees later, the group has banded together as The Cains to write, record and release their own original music.While their harmonies are reminiscent of earlier sibling groups such as The Everly Brothers and The Carpenters as well as more current acts such as Secret Sisters and The Band Perry, The Cains have created their own iconic style of harmony.
Besides drawing from their own DNA, their original music features compelling, edgy lyrics that evoke emotion and is inspired by a vast combination of genres from country, soul and pop to Americana, folk and contemporary Christian.
Their sound can be described as The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac meets Echosmith. Even with a variety of influences, The Cains know exactly what they want in their music – honesty. It all started at World Harvest Outreach Church where the trio gave their first performance of “Mary Did You Know” at the annual Christmas play.
From that moment on, performing together became the new norm for the trio. The siblings were home-schooled together until their teenage years when they each enrolled in Hartselle High School. They were all members of the Hartselle High Cheerleading Team and each graduated at the top of their class.
The three of them would later attend Troy University in Troy, Ala. and, for the first time in their entire lives, wouldn’t share a bedroom. After they all relocated for college (and moved back in together), Logan, Madison and Taylor became very involved at Troy and slowly began making music again.
In between Logan’s practices with the Troy University Cheerleading Team, Madison’s work with the Chi Omega women’s fraternity and the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and Taylor’s work with Troy University’s up-and-coming music industry program, the three of them would perform at various religious, volunteer and university-related functions.
In 2012, The Cains heard about a competition that was taking video submissions for a chance to open for Andrew Ripp and Dave Barnes at WorkPlay Theater in Birmingham, Ala.; however, they heard of the opportunity only one day before the contest was scheduled to end.
The three of them made the executive decision to skip class and write their first original song, “Stay On Board;” and as luck would have it, they won. Only 30 minutes after The Cains were added to the bill, the show sold-out.
The performance was a huge success and solidified their underlying desire to pursue a music career together. "We’ve been performing and singing together our entire lives – literally since we were five, six and seven years old.
It’s always been our passion, but after we won the competition to open for Andrew and Dave at WorkPlay, everything changed. Not only did we begin to believe that we really could make a career out of this, we saw that we had a legitimate fan base that believed in us! That night was the beginning of our journey,” commented Taylor Cain.
What started out as the designated musical guest for World Harvest Outreach Church’s annual fish fry turned into a sophisticated group of singer-songwriters who defied the odds and won a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to open for some of their biggest musical influences while also showcasing their own original music.
In the fall of 2014 after each of them graduated with honors from Troy University, The Cains packed up their small-town Alabama life and began the all-too-familiar pilgrimage to Nashville’s Music City; however, nothing about this band was mundane.
The group released their debut album, Stay On Board, in October of 2014 and their debut single “Be Yourself With Me” hit radio. The single would produce a debut Top 50 on the MusicRow Country Breakout chart and garner the group MusicRow Magazine's DisCovery Award – achievements almost unheard of for an independent act.
In March of 2015, hot off the heels of a successful radio debut and packed performances at Country Radio Seminar 2014, The Cains broke onto the U.K. Country music scene with their first international appearance at London's Country to Country (C2C) festival, Europe's largest and most well-attended Country music event of the year.
During C2C 2015, The Cains performed for festival attendees at the O2’s Saloon Stage and Town Square Stage. In addition to their C2C performances, The Cains also had the opportunity to open for the U.
K.'s Bill Kirchen Band at London’s Tingwick Village Hall."C2C was such a special time for us,” commented Logan Cain. “Not only did we get to impact people, we directly watched that impact happen.
We had the opportunity to perform for thousands of music fans that were completely soaking in the music. It's not every day you get to receive such love and encouragement from complete strangers. We got to write songs with local artists in London and make great friends.
Country to Country was a huge milestone for us and we are thankful for that experience and the souls we met there every single day.”Currently, The Cains are in the studio wrapping up their forthcoming EP and will take a sophomore release to radio this summer.
Additionally, the group was selected by Renegade Radio and The Walt Disney Company to be one of the faces of “Young Country;” a new venture between the two entities, which will promote rising stars within the format.
The Cains have signed on for several upcoming performances at the Cyrus Family Theatre in Chattanooga, Tenn. as part of the new promotion. Most recently, The Cains wrote and performed a song for Bravo TV’s hit reality series “Southern Charm.
” The song was featured in the show and recaps recent happenings within the series, and can be viewed on Bravo TV’s website, www.BravoTV.com. With new music on the horizon and a successful U.S. Country Radio Seminar and U.
K. Country to Country Festival already under their belts, it is safe to say that 2015 has aligned to be the year of the Cains. Of the new music, Madison Cain commented, "I can confidently say that this new EP is the most authentic project we have ever created.
Everything from the songs to the production to the artwork and photography has our fingerprints all over it. We did not make any compromises and we can’t wait to get the music to our fans.”
