The Cadillac Kings new album "The Secret of My Success" is their fifth album and coincides with the band's fifteenth anniversary as one of the UK's top blues & roots acts. The new 14 track album maintains the high standard of its predecessors "Lou Ann" (2001), "Highway 17" (2004), "Trouble in Store" (2008) and the live "Gonna Tell Your Momma" (2012). Only frontman Mike Thomas remains from the first release, and his wry and ofter dark lyrics are well to the fore here, with a whopping ten self-penned songs, joined in the current excellent line-up by Mal Barclay (guitar), Tim Penn (piano, accordion), Paul Cuff (bass) and Roy Webber (drums). The Cadillac Kings truly excel as a live band and you can hear their on-stage fun and musical prowess on the album. They create a five-man blues party with a mix of West Coast flavours, Louisiana Swamp, New Orleans rhumbas, some rockin' R&B and accordion rockers, by way of a health dose of Bo Diddley and Jimmy Reed.
