Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Better Strangers Releases New Song “Nicotine Dreams”
Miami-based rock band Better Strangers, consisting of deCasa (vocals), Joey Rodriguez (guitar), Yang Waingarten (bass), & Nic Collins (drums), released their second single called “Nicotine Dreams” on August 26, 2022.
Following their heavy-hitting debut single “But I Don't Know Your Name”.
The track was written by Nicholas Grev Austin Collins, Luis Ricardo Santiago Cruzm, Joseph Marc Rodriguez Jr., and Yannick Uriel Waingarten.
Better Strangers recorded the track at Brain Damage Studios.
The band said of the song, “One of us had a friend that was the emergency dispatcher at a university. She received a call from a group of friends who had just found one of their friends hanging after committing suicide in their dorm. She had to walk them through the entire process of how to cut them down and perform CPR while they were giving her vivid descriptions and details of what they were seeing. This traumatic event stuck with her in the following weeks.”
They continued, "After the event, she couldn't sleep and spent the time she was up chain smoking cigarettes causing the nicotine to be a substitute for sleep itself. Hence the title, 'Nicotine Dreams.'"- Photo by Alan Wells & Connor Hill
