Cola Share New Single/Video “Haveluck Country" !
This Friday, Cola — the Montreal trio of Tim Darcy (vocals/guitar), Ben Stidworthy (bass), and Evan Cartwright (drums) — will release their new album, Cost of Living Adjustment, via Fire Talk Records. Following a trail of singles which have collected praise from The Needle Drop, Consequence, Brooklyn Vegan, Stereogum and more, Cost of Living Adjustment is Cola, the band, at their very best. Today, the band presents “Haveluck Country,” the final advance single from their sort-of self-titled album. Spanning images of drugstore vitamins and diplomatic immunity, “Haveluck Country” puts the idiosyncrasies with which Cola have become synonym on full display. “In the haveluck country // In the haveluck times,” Darcy begins, dropping listeners into far-off landscape already dripping with familiarity. “Oh it’s painfully serene // Crime without a payoff // What if it was all a dream? // Vivid luck.”
In support of Cost of Living Adjustment, Cola will embark on a world tour, beginning with an Australian run throughout June. Following after, the July North American leg includes stops in Chicago, two nights in New York City, DC, Philadelphia and more. Later this fall, Cola will head back overseas for an full UK and European stint. A full list of tour dates are below, and tickets are on sale now.

Cost of Living Adjustment is the sort-of self-titled album from Cola, the Montreal trio of Tim Darcy (vocals/guitar), Ben Stidworthy (bass), and Evan Cartwright (percussion). C.O.L.A. — an acronym for Cost of Living Adjustment — is a fitting conceptual framework for the band's third record. Why? Because C.O.L.A. considers, among other things, socialism vs. hell. It considers: rolling the dice of life. The erie and sweet pangs that nostalgia can provoke. Following two studio LPs which earned the trio praise from Rolling Stone (Best Indie Rock Albums of 2024), Pitchfork (Best Rock Albums of 2024), Stereogum (Best Songs of 2022) and more, Cost of Living Adjustment is abstract, oblique, sometimes strange, whatever you want to call it. But it is also beautiful, in the classic sense. Beautiful like a painting can be beautiful. It touches on the sublime. It is Cola, the band, at their very best.
