The bright keyboard timbres and idiosyncratic beats of
Cosmo's Midnight are the creation of twin siblings Cosmo and Patrick Liney. Working with collaborators from the pop, indie electronica, rap, and EDM realms, they made their major-label debut with the 2015 EP Moments, featuring the single "Walk with Me."
Hailing from Sydney, Australia, the Liney brothers got their first management deal by winning a
Future Classic remix contest with their whimsical take on
Flume's "Sleepless" in 2012. Led by their debut single, "Phantasm," with guest vocalist
Nicole Millar, the EP Surge was released on Yes Please in mid-2013. Their stand-alone single "Moshi," featuring
Polographia, followed that December before the duo signed with Sony Music Australia. Their second EP, 2015's Moments, included collaborations with, among others,
Wave Racer,
Kučka, and
Lido.
Cosmo's Midnight embarked on their first North American tour in early 2017, selling out shows at The Roxy in Los Angeles and Rough Trade in New York. They followed that with a tour of Australia and stops throughout Asia.
Cosmo's Midnight released their first album via Sony in 2018. Featuring guests such as pop singer
Tove Styrke, rappers
Buddy and
Jay Prince, and fellow Australian electronic duo
Panama,
What Comes Next cracked the Top 40 in Australia. Without rest, they returned in 2019 with the singles "C.U.D.I (Can U Dig It)" and "Have It All." ~ Marcy Donelson
