We managed to get an interview with WOKE UP WAITING to discuss release of their single and upcoming EP and much more!
How has the release of ‘Best of Me’ gone?
The release of Best of Me has been going well, we have been getting great feedback from our fanbase and it’s continually building up the EP release for us. We are working on a music video for ‘Best of Me’ currently, a release date is still being discussed but we are aiming for mid november.
As well as releasing your recent single, I heard you’ve got an EP coming out soon, are you looking forward to the release?
Absolutely. We have been working on this EP for several months now and we are incredibly excited to share our music with the world. It’s been an awesome process through writing and recording and the EP will show everyone exactly what Woke Up Waiting is as a band and who the three of us are as artists. It’s scheduled for release on October 20th of 2016.
What made you want to be in a band and write your own music?
We’ve all really loved music since we were young and have been playing a number of instruments from a very young age. Growing up learning about music really shapes who you are as a person and we have always wanted to be in a band to try and inspire others to do the same as many groups have done for us. It was like an instinct to pursue it.
Where would you like to see yourselves in 5 years time?
Touring the world and helping shape and influence the modern age of music.
Have you got any gigs coming up soon?
Not just yet but we might have some shows rounding up this holiday season. We want to make sure that we have the best show that we can play possible, so until we are satisfied, we are keeping our options open. You can stay tuned to our social media platforms for updates!
