The Cagle Family idea and concept started when Teresita and I, Monte met in 1973 in the island of Puerto Rico while working as missionary volunteers. Working to help children, young people in school projects, orphanages, prisons, youth and drug rehabilitation centers throughout the Caribbean we started singing and performing together part time as a duo to help support our volunteer work. We did our first real show in Aruba a small Dutch island in the Caribbean where we got married while on furlough from our mission . Our performances were very successful and we continued to sing together in restaurants, clubs, and hotels for many years. As the children came, we found that our kids had performing talents and we would occasionally let our oldest kids sing a song or two for friends or tourists around the pool at some of the resorts Melody and Iwould work. We imagined our Family singing together some day as a band like The Jackson Family.
In this musical environment, the Cagle kids learned to sing and groove at an early age and became quit talented. While traveling and performing in Europe, we discovered we could also street perform together as a family and continue to share our message of hope and love with other through music. We developed into a full band and started to perform on TV, Radio shows and screen performances as a family. Today we have grown into The Cagle Family show troupe. All members sing, dance, and play musical instruments. With guitars, bass, drums, keyboard, and percussion instruments. We play a mixture of contemporary Pop, Latin, R&B, Reggae, Gospel and Hip Hop with a captivating narrative style. The Cagle Family have made many TV appearances around the world, airing on VH1's "Behind the Music," featuring the entire family of 12. We have traveled to many different countries of the world in our volunteer efforts to make the world a better place by inspiring families and people everywhere through positive music. Our passion is to share a message of God’s love and hope with the world through song.
