SET FOR RELEASE LATER THIS YEAR
WATCH/SHARE VIDEO HERE
Vancouver drag performer and indie pop-rock musician Dust Cwaine returns with their electric new single and video, 'Little Plans', out now on all digital streaming platforms. Listen here.
Produced by Josh Eastman (Kylie V, Turunesh) and written by Dust and Charlie Kerr (Hotel Mira), 'Little Plans' is the lead single from Dust's forthcoming album Twin Lakes, set for release later this year. Emotionally charged and buzzing with energy, the driving synth-rock track channels the all-encompassing feeling of a new romantic connection.
"'Little Plans' is a T4T love story that celebrates the joy of trans love," said Dust. "I wrote it in my living room with my friend Charlie Kerr. I was excited about the new person I was seeing, and this potential for transformation and magic seemed to be all around me. I told him I was so in love that every time I saw this person, I refused to wash my hands after they left so the scent would linger. That excitement of new love, and that particular power that T4T love brings, can take the everyday minutiae of your life and transform it into something you would have never thought was possible."
With nearly a decade of performance experience, Dust Cwaine needs little introduction at home in Vancouver, BC. Already well-known for their drag shows, both as a performer and impresario, Dust’s songwriting project began in 2020 and channels the moody synthesizer excess of The Cure with the bare-faced honesty of Haim and Noah Kahan. Anchored with a tender sense of responsibility and truth, enlivened by a quick wit and penchant for a catchy chorus, their body of work maps out a rich array of subjects and priorities.
Dust’s genre-blurring sound – described as “nostalgia pop-rock navel gaze” – has earned praise from Exclaim!, The Jann Arden Podcast, and The Georgia Straight, which named them a Vancouver Local Hero in 2024. They’ve shared stages with acts like Hotel Mira and Young Friend, and sold out headline shows nationwide. Their new single, 'Little Plans', follows 2024’s 'Brooklyn' and 'Everything', the 2023 EP 17, and their acclaimed 2022 debut Arcana, all building anticipation for their sophomore LP later this year.
'Little Plans' is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more info, please visit dustcwaine.ca.
