Beach Slang's James Alex took NYLON "To A Place Where 'The Gutter Bangs Into The Stars'" with a peek inside the Austin festivities from the Quiet Slang perspective –

"Working under the moniker of Quiet Slang, Alex brought the magic of Beach Slang's Tiny Desk concert for NPR to Austin, through stripped-back performances and an ease foreign to fans of Beach Slang. It's a radical thing to do, but artists work in mysterious, unexpected ways. Here, Alex takes us into his world, one that's loud but swiftly beginning to embrace the silence between songs."

"Dirty Cigarettes" is taken from Quiet Slang's debut full length, Everything Matters, But No One Is Listening, out May 18. Pre-order your copy now from our E-Store!!
