NASHVILLE, TN (July 10, 2026) — Out today, “Bad Habits” marks the latest release from Nashville-based sister duo Diamond Dixie — Gabriela and Bianca LeDuc — as they continue building toward their forthcoming EP, Time Well Wasted (due August 21). With more than one million followers across social media, the pair deliver a slow-burning, introspective track that explores the intoxicating pull of emotional dependency and the blurred line between infatuation and obsession.
STREAM “BAD HABITS” HERE.
Written by Sam Shelton, Gabriela LeDuc, and Bianca LeDuc, “Bad Habits” captures the feeling of being drawn so deeply to someone that they become impossible to resist — a new kind of vice that feels thrilling, consuming, and almost impossible to quit. The track features Bianca LeDuc on lead vocals, Gabriela LeDuc on background vocals, Brent Wilson on guitars, Chris Haughey on bass, and Jerry Roe on drums. Produced, mixed, and mastered by Brent McCollough, the song balances polished production with an organic edge that keeps its emotional weight front and center.
Combining country storytelling with subtle rock influences, “Bad Habits” highlights Diamond Dixie’s signature vocal chemistry, with Bianca’s commanding lead vocal and banjo work complemented by Gabriela’s harmonies. Gabriela and Bianca share, “‘Bad Habits’ is about being so infatuated by someone that they become your new vice. We relate the feeling of having a crush on someone to being better than any high you can get from anything else.” Filmed outside the The Dive Motel in Nashville, TN, Diamond Dixie deliver the track’s official music video alongside the single’s release.

Previously released singles from the project such as “Broken Boy” (October 17, 2025), “Ain’t Enough Bars,” (February 27) and “Made A Liar,” (May 1) offer a different glimpse into the emotional world of Time Well Wasted. The EP’s first preview, “Broken Boy,” introduced the project’s themes of heartbreak and vulnerability, while “Ain’t Enough Bars” followed with a bold, high-energy breakup anthem centered on resilience and knowing when it’s time to move on. The third single “Made A Liar,” showcased Diamond Dixie’s more introspective side, exploring the gradual loss of self within a relationship and the clarity that comes with reclaiming your identity.

Rooted in themes of heartbreak, resilience, and personal growth, Time Well Wasted marks a sonic and emotional evolution. With Gabriela shaping melody and Bianca building chord structures and lyrical frameworks, their collaborative process results in music that feels both deeply personal and instantly anthemic. As Bianca puts it, this new era is defined by “unapologetic confidence and heavy sounds that make you want to shout these songs at the top of your lungs.”
Bianca and Gabriela add, “As we’ve lived out the experiences that we write about in this EP, we’ve learned to go all in and love to the fullest. Sometimes after a while, you realize some of those relationships aren’t meant for you and it’s time to move on because you want to spend your time well.”

The Nashville-based duo has opened for Brad Paisley, Darius Rucker, Little Texas, and Neal McCoy, and performed VIP sets for Miranda Lambert, Florida Georgia Line, and Luke Bryan.
