Bio

Melbourne based guitarist, singer, songwriter Jeb Cardwell has opened for legendary icons Steve Earle and Tony Joe White. He also recorded an album with Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson, and has since spent over a decade playing guitar for Kasey Chambers, frequently stepping in for her father, the esteemed Bill Chambers.

Jeb’s debut studio album My Friend Defiance is described by Rhythms Magazine as “an album that carries with it the poise and assuredness that comes from two decades of playing, writing and singing with the best of them.” 

Driven by the powerful support of his dynamic rhythm section, featuring Tim McCormack on bass and Roger Bergodaz on drums, live audiences are transfixed as they indulge in an enthralling sonic experience full of captivating and irresistibly catchy grooves.

After supporting U.S. band Vapors of Morphine on their Australian tour in 2025, Jeb released his infectious new single ‘Boomerang’, a standout track from the tour that climbed to number 2 on the AMRAP Metro Charts.

“Jeb Cardwell Band sound tough without breaking a sweat, but you can kick back to them too. I don’t hear many bands that can float the two vibrations in the air at the same time like that.”

- Matt Walker 

“Somewhere between the breezy laid back cool of JJ Cale and the desert parched grit of Billy Gibbons is Jeb Cardwell”
