Track: Children Collide make a sonic impact with new single ‘Man of the People’ as a delightfully fuzzy amuse bouche for new album ‘Time Itself’, and announce tour.

Gareth O Malley August 2, 2021

We premiered the lead single from New Jersey trio Cold Weather Company‘s new record toward the end of June, to head up the release of their Coalescence, Pt. 1 primer EP, and are equally pleased to premiere the next cut from it; and we mean ‘cut’ in the most literal sense.
