The Cab is an American rock band signed to Decaydance from 2007 to 2011. It is considered a secondary Bandom band.

Band History

At the height of its Bandom popularity (c. 2007), the band's lineup consisted of Alex DeLeon (lead vocals), Alex Marshall (guitar, piano), Alex Johnson (drums), Ian Crawford (guitar), and Cash Colligan (bass). Because there were three Alexes in the band, they were usually referred to by their lasts names, except for DeLeon who was known as "Singer".

Fandom

Popular pairings included Cash/Singer and GSF.

The Cab commonly appeared as side characters in works about other Decaydance bands. They were typically referred to as "the Alexes," plus Cash, and tended to be somewhat difficult to tell apart.

Their song 'Angel with a Shotgun' is frequently used in fanvids, and the Nightcore version of it is one of the most watched of the genre on YouTube.
