Cado is back with another slice of traditional rock ‘n’ roll.
Cado is a throwback to a bygone era. An era once inhabited by the likes of the King, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry and such ilk. His sound is unashamedly similar to those legends of music and in a world of cynicism and self-indulgence, it’s a refreshing and beautiful thing.
Born in 1990, you could argue Cado was born half a century too late, but it’s never too late. Never too late to be nostalgic and never too late to be this good at being nostalgic. After stealing a Beatles album from a record shop aged 10, he was inspired to make music for people to dance to.
Cado, who grew up in Kildare, was mesmerised at an early age by the sound of The Beatles and Chuck Berry and from then commenced a lifelong obsession with music.
The multi-instrumentalist has toured the UK and Ireland with The Shades and in early 2016 he began recording a collection of songs inspired by the music he adores. In August 2016 he released the ‘Take Me Back‘ EP. The singer-songwriter takes a completely DIY approach, self-recording and mixing everything in his personal studio.
