Биография

Born & brewed in Wisconsin, Social Cig is the 'Indie-Skate-Rock' music project of Parker Schultz. Consisting of contagious authenticity, cheery live shows, sticky lyrics, catchy melodies, and cultivating an original story with an attitude of gratitude, Social Cig is creating full-circle moments. Blasting through the US post-covid scenes with Kainoa Dee (drums), Jacob Slade (lead guitar), & Austin Wood of Blacktop (bass), Social Cig has become a well-rounded grassroots venture. Home-based in the Midwest music scene between open mics, house shows, concert venues, festivals, and historical theaters, Social Cig emerged in 2018. Schultz released his debut album “Prettier in Person ” in 2020 and his sophomore album “Nothing Is Ever For Sure And Everything Is Always Changing” in 2021. The project was awarded the "Best Disc We Missed" 88.9 Radio Milwaukee Music Award in 2021. Social Cig’s third album “CHEESEHEAD” was released in August 2022 with the stand out single ‘From Afar’ listed as a “Top 10 Favorite Song of 2022” in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. While growing a national fan base, Social Cig continues to expand its landscape by sharing the stage with touring acts such as Wet Leg, PREP, M.A.G.S., Dizzy, Miloe, Ax and the Hatchetmen, Motel Breakfast, Oolong, Weatherday, Michael Cera Palin, Good Looks, Yasmin Nur, and Lowertown. Furthermore, Schultz is the host of the Social Cig Podcast which highlights guests in long-form east going conversations. @SocialCig
