Rojo Cardinal

**Rojo Cardinal** is a Madrid-based indie pop/rock act known for blending breezy melodies with introspective lyrics that explore love, urban life, and personal growth. Emerging in the late 2010s, the band (or solo project – details about its structure are sparse) has carved out a niche in Spain’s indie scene with tracks like the wistful "Ni tú ni yo" and the anthemic "EL-CIELO," which showcase their knack for catchy hooks and layered, guitar-driven arrangements. Their 2020 EP *El Cielo* and subsequent singles like "Periferia" and "La Rueda" reflect a DIY ethos and a fondness for balancing raw emotional storytelling with sunlit, nostalgic production. While they keep a relatively low profile offline, their growing catalog – including recent releases like "Navíos" and "Carabanchel (Bajando)" – suggests a steady creative pulse rooted in Madrid’s vibrant alt-music underground.
