Bio:

Cigarettes @ Sunset

Cigarettes @ Sunset is a band that hails from the mountains of North Carolina consisting of Garrett Dellinger, Sarah Vann, Ryland Bagbey, Wells Whitman, and Ethan Moore. Forming in 2021, the band calls Boone home. Their debut album Mr. Pucky and the Star Destroyers was released in early 2023 resulting in a sound that merges Appalachian angst with pop, outlaw country, and punk. Since 2021, they’ve been touring regularly through the east coast with such acts as Dexter & The Moonrocks and others. The band will play their second year in a row at Boone’s Thaw Out Festival before making their Orange Peel Debut in Asheville this May. The band’s music juxtaposes driving guitar riffs, drums that swerve out of country and punk, with swelling violin, and Dellinger’s semi-autobiographical lyrics anchor the band in both time and place. Their live shows turn any venue into an intimate and energized space, amalgamating shoegaze, old time, and indie rock into a whirlwind of sound. 

Question everything, answer nothing.

Best friends who really really like playing music together based out of Boone, NC.

Pros and cons to falling in love with us

Pro:Wells (Vocals,Bass) barely knows how to dress like a functioning person so the outfits are pretty inspiring.

Con: Ryland (Lead Guitar) will lock eyes with you half way thru the set and ask “ do you know what song this is ?”

Pro: Sarah (Violin)

Con: Garrett (Vocals, Guitar) will find any chance to promote those strawberry pop tart bite things….

Pro: Ethan (drummer) will ascend at the end of every show thru the ceiling singing “cruise” by FGL ft. The goat Nelly and then do a kick flip off the moon landing directly into a very claustrophobic space where he will be held in a vat of unidentifiable liquid (vodka Red Bull) as he recharges thru his slumber awaiting his next surfacing.

The Songstage FAQs:

"What is The Songstage?":

The SongStage is a professional broadcast studio where an audience experiences perhaps the most intimate relationship with the artist possible, listening to every note, while the performance is being captured in stunning audio and video…and where the broadcast can be enjoyed by millions. 8-cameras are employed along with lush audio gear. The “song” is the star of The SongStage, and every effort is made to support the artist and to inspire EPIC performances.

The SongStage was created in 2013 for video production and live performance broadcasts for radio, international shows (such as the Acoustic Café) and on PBS as well as many other networks. The SongStage is a subdivision of Artists International Inc./WorldSound, a Universal/Virgin Music Group label, part of the largest music distribution system in the world.

"Quiet on the Set!":

Since we are filming and recording all the audio from the performance, please be as quiet as possible. That means holding conversation until a later time, phones on silent, and getting your drinks before the song starts! Don’t worry, we’ll have signs and cues to assist with knowing when quiet time is in effect and recording is in session!

"A Recorded Professional Performance":

One of the main goals of The SongStage is to create a one-of-a-kind, “EPIC”, audio/video recording of the artist performing their chosen set live. This means if something isn’t to the Artist’s ideals, the Artist has every right to stop, start over and play the song(s) over until they are satisfied with the performance. As an audience member, patience and understanding are key. An artist is quite vulnerable in this type of intimate and close setting where every facial expression and note is on display. An understanding audience is a great comfort for an Artist.

"Life-Enhancing Merch, Collectibles & Refreshments!":

We'll have limited edition posters, t-shirts and other merch available for purchase before and after the performance!

We’ll be offering assorted liquid refreshments at each show, complimentary from The SongStage!

"Ticket Pricing"

Tickets can range from $2,500 to $20 depending upon the Artist and the type of event.
