The aptly named Cosby is a band made up of the Cosby brothers: Chris Cosby on keys/synth vox and Chip Cosby on guitar/vox with friend Mike Levinson on drums/percussion. Formed in Richmond, VA in the winter of 2012 (what a dark place it was) they managed to create a musical vision of dreamy fizz, a soda can of cosmic synth pop. “Heartracer” is the first single from their yet-unnamed forthcoming album.

Cosby is a band to take on a 1980’s style roadtrip with its upbeat sound and driving beats. Accelerating from 1979 into the 1980s, think Easy Rider meets Christopher Cross. Cosby has opened for Blues Traveler and Future Islands and finished as a semi-finalist in last year’s International Songwriting Competition for their song “Light Of Day”.

The new single “Heartracer” is about “that moment when we finally feel at ease with the realization that we are all, for better or worse, heading in the same direction on this big floating rock in space we call Earth.” The new record is a follow-up to their debut album, IN FLIGHT, released November 29th 2013.
