"..It’s all there: deep blues, swing, New Orleans rhumba-style backbone-wobblers, savage rock-a-billy, plus any other hip style from the last sixty years you care to mention. But this is no reverent heritage band – they have the originality of a new Stones or Led Zep and the attack of early Dr Feelgood, along with better taste and musicianship than any of those bands. I really can’t recommend them highly enough"
Blues In Britain magazine, UK

"Every now and then you get to listen to a CD that instantly has your attention. This is one of ‘em. The Wildcards are a British band that releases their 3rd studio album called “When the Moon Shines Bright”. Filthy, horny and gritty are the keywords with this band. There’s been a lot of writing about the new generation of blues musicians that have the fire and passion that older musicians lack. These guys don’t look like 20 somethings to me but their devilish energy drips from my speakers, the music is that filthy and passionate. This is already one of the best releases of this year" ***** 5 stars

"This is one damn fine band who are one of the most exciting live acts around in any genre"

The Wildcards - When The Moon Shines Bright

25 February 2010 >> New Album Review - 24/7 Magazine
When The Moon Shines Bright
The Wildcards are spreading their swing blues tentacles far and wide, and are clearly having a lot of fun in the process. The jungle swingarama of ‘Gal From Kokomo’, the Little Richard howl of ‘She Can Rock’, the nervy ‘40s noir nuance of ‘Dead Cat Bounce’ plus a glut of surf’n’swamp guitars all add up to a frenetic firestorm of transnational delight. And if the dizzying guitar work doesn’t pull you in by the lapels and throw you into a lindy-hop, Vince Lee’s tungsten-tough, weather-worn baritone croon surely will.
