Keeping 'Cool' With Sam Cohen

Sam Cohen was the guiding force behind the psych-pop bands Yellowbirds and Apollo Sunshine. He self-released a solo album called Cool It in 2015, which caught the ear of producer Danger Mouse (the man behind The Gray Album, Gnarls Barkley, and so much more). Danger Mouse said, “Cool It is one of my favorite albums of the last few years.” So he signed Sam Cohen to his new 30th Century label and is now giving the album its first wider release. Cohen and his band play some of their sunny, summery psychedelia for us, live in the studio.
