Greg Dulli of Afghan Whigs Releases Emotional New Single “It Falls Apart”

Afghan Whigs and Twilight Singers lead singer Greg Dulli has released the first single from his upcoming solo album Random Desire entitled “It Falls Apart”. The song showcase Dulli’s delicate side as an artist, as he reflects on a relationship now lost, as he sings, “Like a wave upon the sea/ I found you there/ And there we were/ until. . .” Dulli’s soft vocal delivery draws the listener in, and the emotion heard n Dulli’s voice resonates throughout the entire track.

Dulli’s solo project Random Desire was first conceived in 2017, after the release of Afghan Whigs’ In SpadesDue to the different band members facing different personal issues (drummer Patrick Keeler taking leave of absence to record and tour with his other band and bassist John Curley goin back to school), the door was left open for Dulli to explore his solo career. Earlier this month, Dulli released the visuals to “Pantomima,” and announced spring 2020 tour dates.

Afghan Whigs has remained relatively passive since the passing of their guitarist Dave Rosser in 2017. Since, the band has performed at Sub Pop’s 30th Anniversary Weekend in 2018,  but they are set to perform in the UK later this year, as well as release their first studio album since In Spades.

Drew Feinerman: I have just completed my senior at the University of Michigan majoring in international studies with an emphasis in political economics and development, with a minor in Chinese language and culture, and I have recently been accepted into the Berklee School of Music's masters of music business program. Although my academic interests include economics, political science, and history, I consider music to be my one true passion. Music is, and has always been, a driving force for the way I think and act every day of my life. I have been playing the tenor saxophone since the age of ten, and playing an instrument at a high level has allowed me to only further my understanding and appreciation for music. While I grew up listening to predominantly classic rock, I soon found myself gravitating toward jazz, hip-hop, funk, and other genres, as my learned to both play and analyze music as a listener. As a writer, I am able to apply my skills both as a musician and a listener, and look forward to the opportunity to being able to express my thoughts on various stories in the music industry.
