If the Cardinals are strangers to you now, then brace yourself for the subtle name change to, simply, Cardinals. Dropping Adams' authorial stamp and eschewing the desire to call themselves The (definitive) Cardinals, these boys seem to prefer the promise of anonymity in the cardinal world already so buoyed by the membership of bishops, birds, football and baseball players, directions, vowels, veins, trains and grapes.
Cardinals are Ryan Adams (vocals, guitar, keys), Neal Casal (guitar, vocals), Chris “Space Wolf” Feinstein (bass), Jon Graboff (pedal steel) and Brad Pemberton (drums).
