Cold Beat has been played on NTS in shows including Yesterday's News, featured first on 3 September 2015. Songs played include Year 5772, Worms and Spirals.

Cold Beat is Hannah Lew, bassist and co-songwriter of the band Grass Widow. It’s the fully expressed voice and emotions of one person, versus the harmonic and lock-step declarations of three women. It’s the emergence of Lew as a singular voice, using dream logic and abstraction to describe the themes of death, internet surveillance, paranoia and science fiction that permeate her music
