Ireland
Cardinals
ESNS: 2025
Rock
Cardinals started as a joke between two sixteen-year-olds in a sleepy fishing town on the southern coast of Ireland. Now barely twenty, the six-piece from Cork are blending Ireland’s musical beating heart with a swell of contemporary frisson. Their eclectic gothic amalgam of shoegaze, Irish trad folk, and rock incorporates 60s Wall of Sound elements for a punk-inflected noise that ‘wants to be warm pop’.
