Tuxedos is the eighth EP by American indie rock band Cold War Kids. This was the follow-up to their fourth studio album Dear Miss Lonelyhearts and was released digitally on September 17, 2013, by Downtown Records.[1] On August 15, Cold War Kids announced that they were going to follow up Dear Miss Lonelyhearts by releasing a six-track EP on digital only.[2] Besides the title track, the EP features an alternate version of "Bottled Affection", covers of Antony and the Johnsons ("Aeon") and The Band ("You Don't Come Through")[3] and two previously unreleased tracks in the US ("Romance Languages #2" and "Pine St.").[2]
To promote both efforts, the band went on a 32-city US headlining tour with support act Papa,[4] ending in early November.[2] The band further promoted their EP by shooting a music video for the track "Pine St." and premiered it on their record label's YouTube page on November 13, 2013.[5]
