Today, Austin based alt-rock band Culture Wars release new single “Slowly” off of their upcoming debut album. Made up of lead singer Alex Dugan, Caleb Contreras, Dillon Randolph, David Grayson and Josh Stirm, Culture Wars have already begun stirring excitement for their debut collection. Recent singles like “Heaven” (1.1M Spotify streams) and “Wasting My Time” combine the group’s infectious, driving energy with lyrical depth, joining in time for glossy pop-rock hooks thanks to Alex Dugan’s soaring vocals.
Alex Dugan shares that “Slowly” is "the story of a bad break up and the inevitable but regrettable feeling of wanting them to hurt as bad as you did. It’s my detail of the aftermath of a long break up, trying to pick up the pieces of myself and find my identity again. Floating around until I finally woke up. Written on acoustic by myself early on, “Slowly” paved the way to helping develop the sound of the album as a whole."
Dynamic with playful showmanship and pure artistry, Culture Wars have expertly crafted an ambitious rock catalog built to resonate with a diverse audience. This summer, the group has joined English indie-pop artist BANNERS as support on his North American tour - all upcoming dates here and below.
