Dutch Interior – Ecig (UK Version)
Dutch Interior’s “Ecig (UK Version)” offers a sharper take on the Southern California six-piece’s fan-favourite track. The band—comprising Jack Nugent, Conner Reeves, Shane Barton, Hayden Barton, Davis Stewart, and Noah Kurtz—has been friends since childhood, and their chemistry is evident in how they rework songs live.
Where the original “Ecig” introduced their sound, this UK version stretches into “elongated sharpness and heightened focus.” Reeves’ vocals carry a fuzzed-out quality that builds into rhythmic intensity. The band pulls from ambient, slowcore, experimental folk, and southern rock, creating something that works despite seeming unlikely on paper.
Their live performances take songs even further from their recorded forms. Dutch Interior treats their catalog as constantly evolving material, and “Ecig (UK Version)” proves that approach. It’s both a crucial adaptation and a glimpse into how they reimagine their work. The result breathes new life into a track that’s been part of the band’s lore for a while now.
