UK TOUR ANNOUNCEMENT!
Sorry for the radio silence, crazy busy last two days. Good news, bad news. Sadly we’ve had to drop two UK shows and a couple German dates off the upcoming European tour. The UK has extended their lockdown past our dates, and Germany won’t give us the all clear coming from the US. Good news is we have locked in all the Sweden and Denmark shows. All details for the run will be up and posted in the morning. In addition, we WILL have the “Heavy Shoes” album with us for sale (months before release) on vinyl and CD, as well as new T-shirts and merch. This has been an incredibly difficult tour to pull off, but looks like we may be the first US band on the ground across the pond. We cannot wait to be back in Scandinavia and play for our you all. Stay tuned!
“The Cold Stares are back!” – Review
The duo of vocalist/guitarist Chris Tapp and drummer Brian Mullins, under the name The Cold Stares, isn’t your everyday indie act. The pair commands national recognition thanks to their cracking blend of rock and blues. The mix they bring to these time-tested forms balances the fundamentals giving each style its enduring appeal while delivering music that sounds fresh rather than retrofitted for modern audiences. Their latest studio release Ways packs a hard-nosed wallop over the course of thirteen songs and likewise shows the continued growth of their songwriting within a familiar frame. I think The Cold Stares are far more than a throwback act; this collection has relevance rather than reveling in a dimming past and they fill each performance with edgy urgency.

Join us for the ride
Sitting in the dark going through the final touches of the acoustic EP portion of WAYS. Definitely the most thought and effort I’ve ever put into a project. There’s not a note or syllable that’s not been purposely chosen, not any detail of the artwork without meaning. Hoping it conveys to our fans the same. A lot of journeys to follow and stories to lose yourself in on this album. Hope you will join us for the ride-
