Cold War Kids have released Audience – a live album comrprised of the band’s greatest hits.

Pre-order Audience on vinyl or CD at shopcoldwarkids.com. The release features three exclusive bonus tracks.

Audience was recorded at The Georgia Theatre in Athens, GA last September 24.  The album gets its name from a song on the Cold War Kids’ 2010 EP Behave Yourself.

Audience features songs from each of the band’s six studio albums, including “We Used to Vacation,” “Hang Me Up To Dry” and ‘Hospital Beds” from Cold War Kids’ 2006 debut, Robbers & Cowards, and “Miracle Mile and “Bottled Affection” from 2013’s Dear Miss Lonelyhearts.

The band’s most recent releases are represented with “All This Could Be Yours” and “First” from Hold My Home (2014) plus “So Tied Up,” and “Restless” and “Can We Hang On?” which originally appeared on LA Divine, the band’s 2017 sixth studio album. See below for track listing.

Watch the video for a live version of Cold War Kids’ new single,  “Can We Hang On?” HERE.  Nathan Willett describes the track as “a hopeful love song that looks back with nostalgia on the good old days but is uncertain about the future.”
