Please welcome WAITING FOR MONDAY to the Frontiers' family! Waiting
For Monday is a new AOR / Melodic Rock duo formed by vocalist Rudy
Cardenas and guitarist & singer August Zadra. The band hails from
Los Angeles and was brought to the attention of Frontiers by Jeff Scott Soto,
with the label moving quickly to sign them based on their outstanding
talents.
Originally from Venezuela, Rudy Cardenas is one of LA's most sought after
rock vocal talents. Best known as a finalist on season 6 of American Idol, Rudy
has been heard on TV and movies ranging from Family Guy to Real Steel. For five
years, Rudy was the power alto for the multi-award winning vocal group, m-pact,
who was named vocal group of the year at the 2005 L.A. Music Awards. More
recently, Rudy was the featured vocalist for the Gold-selling Hungarian rock
album by Mr. Zsolt.
August Zadra is best known for handling lead guitar and vocal duties in
iconic singer Dennis DeYoung's solo band since 2010. Since the age of 15, guitar
playing has been a passion that carried August from Fairbanks, Alaska to
Hollywood, California, where he attended and graduated from the Guitar Institute
of Technology. He has been a constant in the Los Angeles music scene of the past
20 years, playing with a variety of bands, and is often sought out as a
guitarist/vocalist collaborator for writing and recording projects.
The duo are currently writing songs for their debut record which is
expected to be released in 2019. Musically, you can expect classic chart topping
AOR melodies with musical influences from classic rock giants such as Journey,
Styx, and Foreigner.
