Buzz Track: Lost All Control

Kings favorite The Cold And Lovely released a new single “Lost All Control” that comes off their upcoming album. They just performed the Reverend Guitars after party at NAMM with Reeves Gabrels from The Cure. The Cold and Lovely is the brainchild of Meghan Toohey (The Weepies, Lenka, Schuyler Fisk), and Nicole Fiorentino (The Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt, Spinnerette). After several years as a producer and session player, Toohey returned to her roots as a songstress, writing the band’s eponymous debut album. When her songs began achieving placements on television shows such as Gossip Girl, Grimm, Chasing Life and Vampire Diaries, she knew she was on the right path. The Cold And Lovely was named a Kings of A&R top 8 artist.
