Formed in 2014 by Brennan Mackey as an alt-folk outlet, King Cardinal has since expanded into a lineup featuring some of Denver’s most formidable players. The current roster of Mackey, Scott Roush, Jamie Mitchell, Texanna Dennie, Andrew Porter, and Ben Waligoske contributed to the making of King Cardinal’s first full-length album, Great Lakes. Bright guitar licks open into a forlorn, rootsy southern rock melody that evokes the likes of Lynyrd Skynrd and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Mackey’s voice is clear and wholesome as he speaks from the heart, guitars wailing and bass pulsing around him. Dinner will be served at 6pm.
