When you hear Mondo Cozmo’s song “Hold Onto Me”, your first response will likely be — wow, this is beautiful and powerful.

Your second response will likely be — who or what is a Mondo Cozmo??

And why is actress Anna Faris starring in their video?

Fans of LA indie rock will recognize Mondo CozmoEastern Conference Champions’ singer Joshua Ostrander. He recorded this forthcoming album in his guest bedroom with his wife singing the female backup harmonies.

And why Anna Faris?? — well, they’re good friends and she loves the song so she agreed to do the video, which was shot, produced and edited for $0 and no script.

An EP is set for release this summer so look out for it!
