Cardinals share new single, "Big Empty Heart"
Cork five-piece Cardinals have shared their first new material of 2025 in "Big Empty Heart", and announce tour dates for September.
The band's frontman Euan Manning says of the track: "Big Empty Heart is a love song written from beyond the grave. It is a waltz as waltzes are the most romantic kinds of songs. Oskar wrote the main melody on a Korg synthesiser when he was 12 and the song is built around that."
After supporting Fontaines D.C. at Finsbury Park on 5 July, the band will return with their own UK headline tour, seeing them perform in Bristol, Southampton, Leeds, Manchester, Brighton, before they wrap things off at MOTH Club in London on 30 September.
"Big Empty Heart" is out now. Pre-sale for their headline tour begins at 9am on 11 June before tickets go on general sale on 13 June.
