BAND ANNOUNCE ADDITIONAL SUMMER FESTIVAL DATES & SHOWS

Minneapolis-based hard rock outfit COLD KINGDOM are excited to share the second track “Agony” from their forthcoming third album due this summer via oneRPM. The fierce and rhythmically intense new single minces no words as it tackles the harmful effects of social media. “Agony” is out today across digital platforms at this link: https://onerpm.link/agony. An official music video for the track will premiere next Friday, May 20.

“‘Agony’ is an energetic and aggressive song that digs into how vile people can be on social media,” collectively shares COLD KINGDOM who are: Elissa-Marie Ogaard (vocals), Evan Ogaard (guitar), Jason Michael (bass) and Chris Morley (drums).“It’s far too often that people publicly project their negative opinions and judgements on one another, whether asked to or not, whether warranted or not. It’s so easy to hide behind a screen and present a one-sided narrative that shines a light on themselves while completely disrespecting someone else or their views.”

COLD KINGDOM launched their new album with the pulverizing debut single “Criminal” featuring Danny Case of From Ashes to New which Outburn Magazine described as “a lethal combination of fury and sentiment.” Watch the music video HERE. The track is currently at #49 on Billboard’s Active Rock radio charts.

The quartet have brought their energy-filled shows to stages across the U.S. alongside acts including Shinedown, Chevelle, Papa Roach, Buckcherry, Saving Abel, Puddle of Mudd and Nonpoint, in addition to festival appearances at Northern Invasion, RockFest, Summerfest and more. COLD KINGDOM will next appear performing the opening night of Welcome To Rockville on May 18 in Daytona Beach, FL and have a series of shows throughout the summer including festival stops at Moondance Jam (Bret Michaels, Candlebox) and Mile of Music Festival. Full dates are as follows:

5/18 Daytona Beach, Fl – Welcome To Rockville
5/21 Akron, OH – The Vortex
7/9 Omaha, NE – Slowdown
7/23 Walker, MN – Moondance Jam
8/5 Appleton, WI – Mile of Music Festival
