Lauren Dukes - Hectic Love Week (Single)

After years on the scene singing blues, soul, jazz and R&B to receptive audiences throughout the Chicago area, Lauren Dukes is ready to release her debut EP with the launch of her first single “Hectic Love Week,” out July 2, 2021. Lauren Dukes’ self-titled EP drops in September and is a welcome calling card to an artist ready to breakthrough.

“Hectic Love Week” is a song with a very relatable topic. Lauren explains, “The song is about one of those couples that repeatedly break up, then make up. It’s almost a weekly pattern. Everyone knows a couple like this or is in a relationship like this. It was inspired by a friend from a former band who was constantly breaking up with his girlfriend and then getting right back together. With his permission, I wrote about it at Andy Sutton’s studio; Sutton Music Co, and recorded it with A. Latavius Mulzac from Nashville on keys, Kirk Garrison from the Lieutenant Dan Band on Trumpet, and Shawn Maxwell from Chicago on Sax.”
