New Friends – “Waste My Time”

Having met as music students in London, Ontario in 2018, this Canadian quartet of friends found a shared interest in creating songs. Stefan Boulineau, Ayden Miller, Cole Wilson and Conrad Galecki continued honing their sound and entered and won Canada’s biggest music competition “It’s Your Shot” in 2021. Inspired by Coldplay, Oasis and COIN, they released their debut “Purple Candy” in 2019.

Lyrically exposing a tantalizing but toxic love in which you can’t get enough, even when they waste your time, their new single tells the story with an infectious indie-pop melody. Easing into the track with a shimmering synth, soon the funky bass and bouncy percussion takes over and leads to a high-spirited chorus. With catchy hooks and vivid harmonies, this groove is worth every second.
