COLD WAR KIDS

Cold War Kids strive to make honest songs about human experience in orchards and hotel rooms, laundromats and churches, sea ports and school halls. We love the songs of Dylan, Nina Simone, and the Velvet Underground and make our own, which we like to think, are pretty original.

With Gold Motel, it’s always summer, the bags are always packed, and the car is always running. Beneath tight pop hooks and warm melodies, Gold Motel’s songs are infused with joyous exuberance as well as sweet melancholy.

McClusky knows just how a song or snippet of uplifting melody can make a difference. Even at 17, she has a maturity that outpaces her years, and has used music to transcend some dark personal passages. "Music was the only thing I could rely on, the only thing that made sense through my teenage years," she says.
