Cold War Kids return to Australia and perform at Metropolis Fremantle on Monday 2 February 2009.

Nathan Willett (lead vocals, piano, guitar), Jonnie Russell (guitar, vocals, percussion), Matt Maust (bass guitar), and Matt Aveiro (drums) formed in 2004 and released their debut album Robbers & Cowards in 2006.
The album won Australian fans & radio over with singles such as ‘Hang Me Out To Dry’ and ‘Hospital Beds’. With multiple songs in triple j’s Hottest 100 and sell-out tours in Australia (including Splendour In The Grass) and across the world, Cold War Kids released sophomore album Loyalty to Loyalty in 2008. It became the group’s first Australian Top 20 album, and featured singles ‘Something Is Not Right With Me’ and ‘Mexican Dogs’ which both received high rotation on triple j.
Their music is said to be heavily inspired by artists such as Jeff Buckley, Bob Dylan and Velvet Underground.

Tickets through BOCS available from Monday 15 December.
