Jeff: Thanks! Yeah, when we
were writing that song, we in-
stantly knew it had room for some
awesome horns, bass, and per-
cussion. I actually grew up with
Brian (Cook Thugless sax player)
and Jim (guitarist/producer) and
have worked on music projects/
been in bands with them for a
long time. We go back to the el-
ementary school days together
in Sparta. I was also a founding
member of Thugless when it start-
ed in our apartment on the Cook
campus our sophomore year, after
we met and became friends with
the other guys the previous year.
I’m on most of the songs on the
first album, ‘Space,’ and one of
the songs on the second album,
‘Time.’ The Thugless guys will for-
ever be close buds, and it’s excit-
ing to continue to collaborate with
them. You can expect to see more
of that in the future.
Another thing you have in com-
mon with Thugless, among other
acts, is that you methodically
release singles and videos in the
Watch Cold Weather Company perform “Steer”
