Vol. 173: Finding Yourself with Red Cardinal

In Vol.173, we catch up with Red Cardinal, one of the East Coast’s most exciting emerging rock bands. Don’t miss this exclusive interview

Led by Corey Jellison, Red Cardinal has been making serious waves since forming in 2023. Their debut album, Find Yourself, just dropped on May 16, and it's packed with everything we love—emotional grit, big riffs, and lyrics that hit you right in the feels. Their show energy is second to none and they are some of the best fellas you will meet and you can tell they love what they are doing and just being buds too.

Corey Jellison - Lead Vocals , Guitar: Mike Bent - Lead Guitar,  Backup Vocals : Andrew Parsons - Bass  and Scott Almon - Drums

Recorded at Graywin Studios with Derek Hilchie and mastered by John Flanagan at Parachute Mastering, Find Yourself is more than just a debut—it's a calling card. Tracks like "The Moth" and "Stranger Days" dive deep into personal growth, mental health, and the wild ride of finding your place in the world.

In this episode, the band opens up about how they came together, what fuels their sound, and why live shows are everything. We talk about the grind, the good vibes, and the real power of community in music, family, musical influences and more. Plus, they spill some details about their upcoming set at Area 506, where they’ll be sharing the stage with none other than Alexisonfire.
