This track features sassy vocals from the Marsh sisters, backed by a potent mix of funk bass, wah-wah guitar, and driving drums that can put seasoned funk bands to shame.

[mailerlite_form form_id=1]Drawing inspiration from well-known indie pop artists like Florence and the Machine, and the funky grooves reminiscent of Jamiroquai, The Marsh Family has crafted a tune that is both fresh and familiar. In ‘Cool Kid,’ the Marsh Family provides a potent social commentary addressing the illusions we create in school corridors and on social media. The lyrics deliver a poignant reminder: “Hashtags never made a lasting friend,” which echoes the superficial nature of online popularity.
Not just a treat for the ears, the song’s video adds another layer of storytelling and artistry. Created by Italian paper animation specialists SeenFilm, the video offers vivid snapshots of school bullying incidents while the Marsh Family navigates through corridors in a Partridge-style vintage bus. This unique visual narrative adds depth to the song’s message, making it a multi-sensory experience for fans and new listeners alike.
The Marsh Family’s journey from their home in Faversham to global recognition is nothing short of inspiring. Their music brilliantly captures the essence of British culture and resonates with universal themes of authenticity and self-acceptance.
