Single Focus: Dead Letter Circus

Answered by: Clint Vincent

Single title? While You Wait

What’s the song about? The apathy of society. The lengths the media and governments will go to to create fear and conflict.

How long did it take to write/record? Kim’s music idea and the lyrics to the chorus were worked out before entering the studio. We jammed the other ideas for a few days then recorded it in one month along with other songs.

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? This is the first single from our forthcoming release due in August. This will be our third full-length release and we are super excited to get it to you all!

What was inspiring you during the song’s writing and recording? We were jamming as a band in a truly amazing creative environment. Just bouncing ideas off each other and really being immersed in the music. It was the most fun I’ve had being creative.

We’ll like this song if we like... Powerful rock with a strong message. Like a modern-day Midnight Oil crossed with Phil Collins crossed with Muse...

Do you play it differently live? It’s very much the same. Just an extended bridge and rock out ending. It’s a short song so we want to keep it rolling a little longer live.

When and where is your launch/next gig? Our single launch tour begins on 11 Jul at The Zoo and sees us hit most capital cities the following week.
