Prolific Australian based guitarist, singer-songwriter Jeb Cardwell is an underground legend of the scene

​

With a style somewhere between the breezy laid back cool of JJ Cale and the desert parched grit of Billy Gibbons. 

 

As a guitarist he has the awareness to know when to hold back and serve the song and also the ability to unleash a blistering attack...​

​​​

Whether opening for artists such as Steve Earle and Tony Joe White or as the studio/touring guitarist of the ARIA award winning Kasey Chambers, Jeb has done it all except one thing...

​​​​​​​

Finally to the delight of fans and peers, Jeb released his debut studio album ‘My Friend Defiance’, a bluesy, Americana, Beatles-esque lesson in guitar tones dripping with Southern swagger, interweaving synth and piano melodies, slide guitar riffs, rich and soulful vocals.

​​​​

The album mastered by Grammy award-winning Brian Lucey (Black Keys, Lucinda Williams, Liam Gallagher) features the crème de la crème of Australian recording artists. Three singles were released with ‘Blood Moon’ reaching #2 on the AMRAP charts

​​​​​​​

Whether performing solo or backed by his dynamic rhythm section you’re guaranteed a sonic feast of irresistibly tasty grooves.

“Jeb’s debut album sounds tuff without breaking a sweat, but you can kick back to it too. I don’t hear many records that can float the two vibrations in the air at the same time, like Jeb can. Also recommended for road trips.”
