Hi, I’m Waiting
*repeat repeat frontman Jared Corder says, “Glazed is about looking at the world through a different lens. It’s about taking the familiarities of life and love and the end of the world and approaching them with renewed optimism and a fresh set of colors.”
“’Hi, I’m Waiting’ is a song about patience and understanding in unrequited love. It draws on feeling connected with someone that may not share the same sentiment. You see the potential, but they aren’t sure yet. Maybe they’re not in a place within themselves to see your value.”
*repeat repeat deliver a batch of songs entirely true to the album’s title: sugary and sticky and impossibly shiny, all glistening harmonies and candy-coated hooks. But beneath the gloss lies something more jarring and jagged, a raw vitality generated by the Nashville band’s buzzy rhythms and blistering guitar work. Fortified by the distinct creative alliance of husband-and-wife duo Jared and Kristyn Corder, the result is an album that finds an unlikely power in irrepressible sweetness.
The follow-up to 2017’s Floral Canyon, Glazed marks a period of major growth for *repeat repeat, who’ve spent the better part of the last few years touring, highlighted by a 2018 debut at the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival that saw them lavishly praised by Rolling Stone, who hailed them as “Most Enthusiastic Rockers”. In bringing the new album to life, *repeat repeat worked closely with Carney, immersing themselves in a more rigorous songwriting and recording process than they’d ever attempted before.
“It was a pleasure getting the opportunity to work with and befriend *repeat repeat. I’m really proud of the album and had a lot of fun making it as well,” says Carney.
In support of the new album,*repeat repeat will be touring this year starting in Austin, TX at SXSW and including an album release show on June 2nd. See tour dates below. More tour dates to be announced soon.
