about

WA 3 piece Cosy have evolved over 10 years of messy side projects and off-shoot bands. Musical mates Oscar Van Gass (drums), Albert Pritchard (bass), came together around the sounds of songwriter Sam Rocchi (guitar, vocals). The trio have sculpted a delicate balance between drama and love, with their textured songwriting and chaotic live show.

‘Buttons’ is about how love promises much more than it will give you, it’s there to break the fall but will step aside when you need it. Recorded with Mitch McDonald (the Love Junkies) at Blackbird Sound Studios (Spacey Jane, Drapht) this is the latest offering since the single ‘Blue’ at the beginning of 2020 and their EP ‘Borrowed State’ in 2018.

Collectively these talented humans have performed in many WA bands including, Noah Dillon, New Nausea, Shit Narnia, Mung Dahl, The Chlorines, Priscilla, and many more. But in Cosy they shine like the sun in your eyes on a hungover morning, it should hurt but it's the last taste of a well lived night and you want to cling to that feeling as long as you can.

Raucous and loud music. Rambling and passionate lyrics. They keep things moving between sprawling lyrical passages and straight up rock-dogging band chops.

lyrics

Still I’m running, only chased to be led
And wonder how it became
That frozen thought in my head
Better filled with noise instead
Now that thread comes undone
And you’ve measured out my pulse
That leaves a trail where I’ve been
And you add them all up

There to break the fall
There to open the door
Here to step aside
Here to lock it behind

Still I’m running, only chased to be led
And wonder how it became
That frozen thought in my head
Better choked arrested
Now I lack control and I came from content
And I’ve filled the hole, when I know I should forget
But that feeling is new and I am so predictable
Convincing myself that I came from content

There to break the fall
There to open the door
Here to step aside
Here to lock it behind
So many walls that I had to climb
Now I’m not coming down
Finally I feel alright

Shake me down and take nothing
Across the ground for you all to see
Now I’m losing buttons
And you add them all up
You add them all up
You add them all up
