Duo Sunset West dropped their latest single “Cold Hearted” on August 19. Sunset West consists of brothers Stephen and Justin Kirk. Stephen and Justin have spent the last ten years in the music business. They have written songs for artists like ERNEST and Chris DeStefano. They’ve also worked on the production side of the music business. Justin has worked with the likes of Jason Mraz while Stephen has worked with BTS; the brothers actually wrote a song that became BTS’ mega-smash “Butter”! Now, Sunset West are making their own mark with their first single “Cold Hearted”.
“As a duo, we wanted our first single to be something that really spoke to who we are as brothers and as artists,” Stephen states. In fact, “Cold Hearted” was written as a response to a breakup Stephen recently experienced. The country-pop melody cleverly masks the sorrowful lament the lyrics spell out. Sunset West have perfectly matching harmonies, emboldening their sound.
Cold hearted
You ain’t have to do this, look what
You started
Stealing my affection just to
Walk away my God it’s
Killing me inside
And I won’t be the same
Darling you’re the one to blame
You left mе
Cold hearted
(Cold heartеd)

Sunset West has another single planned to be released in the fall. They also have an EP planned for a 2023 release. “We want our music to come across as high energy. It’s a nice blend of both pop and country, but we hope our roots come out,” Justin says. “We are boys from the south, so we want that to show through.” Follow Sunset West on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok for updates on these upcoming projects.
