Every now and then you hear a new song, that has that familiar tone and feel to it, an instant kick up your arse, an instant hit of feel good. Creating these songs is the mission of Sydney's heavy blues rockers The Black Cardinals. The Black Cardinals formed in early 2019 from the ashes of a number of Sydney bands, all bringing together a mixed bag of influences ranging from indie pop and hard rock to soul and r&b. The result is big. Think traditional big riffs with blues undertones, a shit load of groove and soulful vocals. Call it a renaissance, if you will. Rock music is back and appealing to a whole new generation of fans, reinvigorating those old heads and reminding us that life is not all that bad when you have a kick arse soundtrack to go with it. Part of that soundtrack is The Black Cardinals.
