Cowboy Motif

About Me

With the help of many friends all over the midwest, Cowboy Motif have been driving around in the summer and on weekends between their other busy happenings. Usually Peter and Kelsey hang out and make noise and smirk awkwardly at one another or in front of a group in a living room. We'd love to come play with you, so drop us a line. We're very friendly. Above all, we really just want to have as much fun as possible all the time.

Our summer 2009 EP: Ivory & Thel. If you would like a copy, send us a message or simply send us something at 2922 w Belden Ave. Chicago, IL 60647 with your name and address and, if you like, a donation. You can also read about it in our blog.
