Cardinal Black at Academy 2, Manchester

In 2027, Cardinal Black return to the road for their biggest headline tour to date, taking their new album, Second Sign of Life, across the UK, Ireland, Europe and North America. Released January 29th on Thirty Tigers, Second Sign of Life sees the Welsh-born trio stripping things back to their foundations; self-produced and self-engineered at Hamburg's renowned Clouds Hill Studio between European tour dates, the record captures the instinctive chemistry of a band shaped by thousands of miles and countless shows together. That journey has already taken Cardinal Black from chart-topping records to sold-out shows at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire, New York's Gramercy Theatre and Los Angeles' Troubadour, as well as a standout Royal Albert Hall appearance with Peter Frampton. Now, with Second Sign of Life, the road opens up again. New songs, bigger rooms, and another chapter written night by night.
