There’s a happy-go-lucky feel to Sonny & The Sunsets’ new single “Waiting” that just drags you up out of the chair and makes you want to get moving. The strummed-out acoustic guitar at the intro feels like the intro to a Kinks song you never knew existed until the Vibrato heavy organ synth slightly modernizes the sound. The overall throwback sound brought here is both vintage and refreshing with simple hoppy rhythms and round strong bass playing. Lyrically, it’s perfectly weird and listenable without attempting to overcomplicate the sweet short, and simple overall songwriting. This is the lead single and opening track to Sonny’s new album “Self-Awareness Through Macrame” out in late August.
