About BILLY STRINGS:

Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Billy Strings won Best Bluegrass Album at the 63rd Annual GRAMMY Awards for his critically acclaimed record, HOME. Released on Rounder Records, HOME was produced by Glenn Brown and furthers Strings’ reputation as “one of string music’s most dynamic young stars” (Rolling Stone). Of the album, Associated Press proclaims, “it is his creative musical storytelling, paired with solid vocals on Home that should seal the deal, pleasing fans of the genre and creating some new ones...the perfect blend of pure talent and pluck,” while The Wall Street Journal declares, “Billy Strings has clearly emerged as a premier guitar flatpicker of this era.” Moreover, Strings and the album topped Billboard’s 2020 year-end chart in both Bluegrass categories: Top Bluegrass Artists and Top Bluegrass Albums Titles.

Michigan-born and now Nashville-based, Strings arrived on the music scene as one of the most compelling new artists with the release of his 2017 debut LP, Turmoil & Tinfoil. Since his debut, Strings has been awarded Guitar Player of the Year and New Artist of the Year at the 2019 International Bluegrass Music Awards, selected as one of Rolling Stone’s 2017 “New Country Artists to Know” and performed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and PBS’ “Bluegrass Underground.” Often playing over 200 shows per year, he has also become known as an electric live performer, keeping the improvisational tradition of bluegrass alive while incorporating elements of several diverse genres. WXPN’s World Café declares, “a bona fide phenom...with his virtuosic guitar playing front and center, Strings fuses bluegrass to psych rock, country and jam music, without fussing over what bluegrass should be.”

"Wargasm" Lyrics

I see it comin’ everywhere I look

It’s falling down like rain

Kill a man over a sentence in a book and collect a reward for his pain

It’s such a failing situation and I’m sick of looking at it anywhere I go

We let them talk us into hate and stick to war again like it’s the only thing we know

So what’s the reason for this again?

Right back where we’ve always been

these excuses are wearing thin

What’s the reason for this again?

What’s the reason for this again?

You can’t decide but you’ve got to win

We’re all the same but you’re not my friend

So what’s the reason for this again?

Same shit different century

Here we go again

It's no parade seeing tanks on your street What's the mission, when’s it gonna end

How many stones do we have to line up before we understand

We’re caught up drawing lines on paper, at the price of the blood in the sand

So what’s the reason for this again?

Right back where we’ve always been

These excuses are wearing thin

What’s the reason for this again?

So what’s the reason for this again?

You can’t decide but you’ve got to win

We’re all the same but you’re not my friend

So what’s the reason for this again?

So step into the grinder with your brother tomorrow

And kiss your mother goodbye

She’ll wipe her tears with your ribbons and then they’ll replace you in the blink of an eye

So bite the bullet and boots on the ground these ain’t sticks and stones

Flicking matches at a powderkeg while you’re standing on a pile of bones

So what’s the reason for this again?

Can't decide but you've got to win

We're all the same but you're not my friend

What’s the reason for this again?

You are the reason I’ve been going psycho,

It’s too ugly still can’t keep my eyes close

You’re cold I still need your touch though

Probably wake up and still hate you tomorrow

What’s the reason you never wanna conversate

What’s the reason you never want to stay and wait

Fumbling all your words like you’re afraid of me

But I’m the one with the knife stuck in my back again

Call my phone I decline, you’re the reason why

We don’t love in sequence you’re not even mine

Show another display count how many times

You can’t have it your way, sacrifice my pride!

So what’s the reason for this again?

Right back where we’ve always been

But these excuses are wearing thin

What’s the reason for this again?

So what’s the reason for this again?

You can’t decide but you’ve got to win

We’re all the same but you’re not my friend

So what’s the reason for this again? x 3

What's the reason for this?
