Distant Cousins is an American indie pop band from Los Angeles, California. Formed in 2012, the band is composed of Dov Rosenblatt, Duvid Swirsky, and Ami Kozak. Rosenblatt and Swirsky are members of the influential Jewish rock bands Blue Fringe and Moshav. They released their debut self-titled EP on September 16, 2014, followed by a second self-titled EP in 2015. Several of their songs have been featured in film, television, and commercials.
Prior to forming Distant Cousins, Dov Rosenblatt was the lead singer of the Jewish rock band Blue Fringe, while Duvid Swirsky was a founding member of the band Moshav. Swirsky, Rosenblatt, and Kozak met in Los Angeles in 2012 while their respective bands were playing a show together. Upon hearing a song Swirsky and Rosenblatt had written, "When We Love", Kozak offered to produce it, and the three subsequently began playing together. The name Distant Cousins, a reference to the members' longtime familiarity with each other, was first used when writing a song for the 2013 film Coffee Town.
Their debut EP, the self-titled Distant Cousins EP, was released on September 16, 2014.
