the cool minors have grown up.
The group has technically been around for nearly 10 years, but under the name Andre Costello and the Cool Minors. Starting out as a trio in 2012, 2 releases on vinyl, radio play, listens online, a live album performed and released in video and audio during the pandemic, the group decided to change course and start fresh as FORESTRY DIVISION.
Front man André Costello has been praised for his ability to write songs that “dance between the upbeat and the melancholic, often landing on both at once.”
On the upcoming record, Costello’s well-established ability to write a killer hook is paired on the new record with an intentional lack of urgency; some tracks sprawl into one another, building a dream of sorts, while others are straight odd-pop gold.
