Read Jason White’s, Bassist, Q & check out “Radio Edit” VIDEO!” Read the full interview here…

In the email from them they said “Our staff is just crazy about “Radio Edit”…  can’t stop humming it!”  Thanks!

car stereo wars get all deadwoody

November 26th, 2009 | By

car stereo wars are locked down in deadwood… Well okay it’s not Deadwood. Its Steiglitz. A Victorian ghost town that experienced a similar gold rush in the 1850’s. The wazzas as they are sometimes known are busy writing and recording material for their 2nd album.
There are still a few surviving buildings in the town but most have no power. Fortunately with a generator or two and the power of mac laptops we have the potential to record to our hearts content. (or our batteries run out…)
Strangely the songs seem to be taking on a country/dixie feel. Please take note of the photo from our last shindig at Steiglitz.
Stay tuned for more tales from the ghost town of Steiglitz. We are making a little documentary as we go. It will find its way to the website soon.

new website

November 17th, 2009 | By

car stereo wars has retired the old website and replaced it with a shiny, bright, wordpress powered website, the old site has served us well but this one will allow us to update posts more often and allow more interaction with the users via commenting.

We’ll try and keep the new site update with more stories than the old one. The old site was hard to update but this one is much easier!

tic-tac chill tv commercial

November 15th, 2009 | By

“Come to Nothing” by car stereo wars has been featured on the tic-tac chill tv commercial for a year now and the great news is it will be on for another year. We’ve been lucky enough to gain a lot of exposure from the tic tac commercial, so another year of exposure is great news for us.

A lot of people have been asking who the song is by, hopefully you will find this page now which has more reference to the ad than the old website.
