Boorloo/Perth-based indie-rock band Sophian have unveiled their expansive single, Wait For You – produced by Dave Parkin at Blackbird Studios (Spacey Jane, Sly Withers, Old Mervs). This is the second release from their upcoming debut EP, ‘Somewhere In Between’, set for release on Friday October 4.
Wait For You vividly captures unwavering love as swelling and receding guitars echo through heartfelt lyrics. The rhythm section creates a driving yet unhurried pulse as Sophian Manik‘s warm vocals deliver an anthemic release.
Sophian talks about the inspiration behind Wait For You: “Wait For You is a deeply personal declaration of love and commitment. Written for my wife, it reassures her that I will always be there, cherishing every version of her as we grow together. The song is a testament to enduring love and patience, emphasising that true love remains steadfast through all of life’s changes and challenges. It’s also a song that can be dedicated to anyone or anything you love, not only to a partner. This can be to your mum, a sibling or even your best bud.”
In the live arena, the band have previously shared the stage with acts such as COTERIE, Bootleg Rascal, Danté Knows, Chandler Jewels, South Summit, DICE, Mitch Santiago and King Ibis. They have also sold out their last three hometown shows and embarked on a national tour across Australia.
Previous singles have seen support from triple j, triple j Unearthed, 2SER, PBS FM, SYN Media, 4ZZZ, RTR FM and Gove FM. They have also seen support in the blogsphere from the likes of Atwood Magazine (USA), Backseat Mafia (UK), Pilerats, Music Feeds, MILKY, Australian Music Scene and AAA Backstage. Recently their single Beautiful Day won the WAM Award for ‘Song of the Year’ in their Pop Category.
