Cold War Kids have released a free covers EP via their website.

The Californians have made ’Benefit At The District’ available via their website Coldwarkids.com.

The songs, which can be downloaded as MP3s, feature songs from the likes of Elvis Costello and Tom Waits.

“We got asked to do a benefit at the District Lounge in Orange on September 24 with Dustin Kensrue and Chuck Regan,” explained the band of the recording. “It was through the Breast Cancer Walk that takes place in Costa Mesa the last several years. We decided to play some covers… It's a pretty informal loose performance but we decided to let you hear it anyway.”

’Benefit At The District’ features the following tracks:

‘Indoor Fireworks’
‘Fast As You Can’
‘Die Die Die’
‘I Don't Wanna Grow Up’
‘Tonite, You Belong To Me’
‘The Littlest Birds’
