The members of Cold War Kids were friends in grade school. The lead singer was encouraged to play by his grade school teacher. The drummer used to annoy his brother by playing his favorite CD at all hours of the night. Cold War Kids began playing at the college dive bar Engineer. The group begged the local radio station to play their first single.

The group just completed their latest record, but they are already plotting the next move. Cold War Kids hope to team up with other artists while they are on tour.

Cold War Kids was discovered after their single was heard on Z101.5. The group played for years atsmall bars making almost no money.

Cold War Kids accepted that they had a real chance to become a headlining national act after Sharon Baca started a fan club for the band in 1998. The fan club received a huge boost after Debra Parquette designed a website for the band. That coupled with the tour across the nation saw the fan club’s official membership reach numbers in the thousands.
