SHARE NEW VIDEO + SINGLE “SHINE” 

MOTIONLESS COMING MAY 24 ON DAIS RECORDS

TOUR UK WITH TAMARYN IN MAY

Cold Showers unveil their new single and video “Shine”, debuting today on FLOOD. The track is the second off the band’s upcoming album Motionless, released 24th May via Dais Records.

Director Travis Waddell explained the beautiful accompanying video: “‘Shine’’s textures are a reverent nod to MTV-era music video etherea. The 16mm footage shot between Bolinas and Pt. Reyes backdrops Nicola Collie’s movements, a performance so immersive she nearly threw out her neck.  From concept to completion it spans over half a year’s work, which allowed it to reform and define itself.” 

Motionless wields a more developed pop sound that is familiar to followers, yet more sophisticated and evolved than their previous works. Having traversed the realm of synth-laced post punk expertly for close to a decade, Motionless is the band’s ode to their pop forbearers, their goth-like precedent enhanced with ambient narratives, acoustic overlays and compelling female vocals. Enlisting long-time collaborator Tony Bevilacqua (The Distillers) to co-write the album, Cold Showers expand their boundaries and let their creative mastery come to the forefront. The result is a warmly melodic, experimental and evocative pop record.  

Motionless is Cold Showers looking inward and taking control of their creative process, while retaining all of their unique songwriting signatures. Recorded in their own studio in Los Angeles with band member Chris King at the production helm, each selection on Motionless sounds like a line drawing that quickly becomes a technicolor collage of crashing shoegazed reverberation. 

After releasing singles on Mexican Summer and Art Fag RecordsCold Showers signed with Dais Records and released their debut LP, Love and Regret in the summer of 2012. With driving bass lines, hypnotic guitar riffs, tom-heavy drums, and deep melodic vocals, Love and Regret was met with industry praise and critical acclaim including synchs on hit television series 13 Reasons Why and How to Get Away with Murder.
