Sad Pop — Grand Rapids, MI
The Cardboard Swords is an indie-pop band from Grand Rapids, Michigan who you will soon know like the back of your hand. They sing with their heart on their sleeve, they ooze passion. So much so that every song almost feels like a confession or a conversation, like you’ve been best friends forever and you are just sharing stories and you have each other’s back while hanging out late night in between video games and movies. The Cardboard Swords make you feel alive, and what a time it is to be alive!

“Where their paths diverge, which would become abundantly clear over the next few months, is in stage presence, which for I Forgot To Love My Father feels like an ethereal, evolving performance art. If their creative headspace hadn’t already existed, it would feel a little like a band thrashing knives about trying to carve its own niche. It’s more that JP Davis and company have figured out how to constantly test the boundaries of their capacity for artistic expression.

Its type of folksy, expressive, thoughtful indie rock allows it to spread out in art galleries, play a formal at Duffy’s Tavern or adorn themselves in hard rock garb as they dance into the crowd with a bluegrass band — not to mention Davis crowdsurfing in a coffeeshop. That the band has a way of injecting a faint whiff of showmanship into songs that feature desperation, longing and that sweaty-palm feeling gives them agency to play in most settings.” -Andrew Stellmon for Hear Nebraska
