Diet Cig will release I Don’t Like Driving Like I Used To, an EP featuring acoustic and alternative versions of 3 tracks off their their beloved and critically acclaimed album Do You Wonder About Me? on October 1st.

The EP leads with “Who Are You (Alt Version),” which is followed by “Priority Mail (Alt Version),” and an acoustic take of “Broken Body.” Today the duo – Alex Luciano and Noah Bowman – share “Priority Mail (Alt Version)” and they note “This spring we chose to go back in the studio and rerecord a few tracks from our album, as a practice in intuitive music making and as a nod to this album that has really gotten us through the past year and a half. We went in with no rules, just with the idea that we wanted to play with these songs and explore new sounds for the tracks. We had a lot of fun giving ‘Priority Mail’ a more light hearted feel, in contrast to the moodiness of the original. We both played all the parts in collaboration with Chris Daly at Salvation Recording Co. in New Paltz. It felt really healing to dive into this process around the 1 year mark of the album release!!”
