Биография

Social Cinema is a new band with over a decade of history. More accurately, Social Cinema is the latest chapter in a decade-plus friendship and artistic journey evolving alongside the people behind the music. Austin Engler and brothers Griffin and Logan Bush formed Kill Vargas in 2013 as teenagers in KS. Along the way, the trio would cross paths with NE band, Death Cow, featuring Mari Crisler and Reed Tiwald. Between sharing bills and sleeping on each other's couches after shows in the Midwest DIY scene, the 5 became inseparably close, eventually joining forces in 2021 as Social Cinema. Social Cinema makes an immediate impression with seasoned songwriting chops and a road-hardened work ethic. Since forming in 2021, the alt/indie rock quintet has issued three EPs — 2022’s Debut 'Causing Scenes' and 'Repeat' and 'Get Along' in 2023, and has shared bills with the likes of Metric, Saint Motel, Bad Bad Hats, Slothrust, and more. Social Cinema is gearing up to share its next EP and second in 2023. Titled 'Stay Numb', it continues Social Cinema’s pro studio polish, this time bringing that refinement to the direct punch of the band’s garage rock roots. From anthemic power-pop on the title track, “Stay Numb,” to the heavy, feedback-laden riffs of “On Time,” this latest chapter in Social Cinema’s journey is a celebration of the sounds and scenes that got each of its members to where they are today.
