Videos by American Songwriter

ARTIST: COIN

SONG:Time Machine

BIRTHDATE: 1992

HOMETOWN: Huntington, WVa

CURRENT LOCATION: Nashville, TN

AMBITIONS: To make art that makes everyone feel anything.

TURN-OFFS: Cold pizza and technological ignorance

TURN-ONS: Synths and maps

DREAM GIG: I’d like to perform at the Grammy Awards. If that doesn’t work out, it’d be cool to be a professional tennis player.

FAVORITE LYRIC: ‘He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus / But he talks like a gentleman / Like you imagined when you were young’ -The Killers

CRAZIEST PERSON I KNOW: I wouldn’t say that my grandmother is crazy. I guess I’d just say that her cats are very sensitive to the paranormal.

SONG I WISH I WROTE: ‘I Don’t Want Love’ by the Antlers. That song just makes me feel something. On second thought, maybe ‘Party in the USA’.

5 PEOPLE I’D MOST LIKE TO HAVE DINNER WITH: In no particular order: Ayn Rand, Judas Iscariot, David Byrne, Billy Joel, Aziz Ansari,  Tupac (I’ve got some questions I feel that everyone would like answered). Oops, 6.

MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: I once saw fun. in a really large theatre, and there were only 15 people there. It was their last show on the Aim & Ignite tour. Kinda sad, but it’s a really great memory.
