Shangrila are back with their infectious second single, “Waiting“, pulled from their upcoming sophomore EP, ‘Analog Youth‘, due out Friday, August 27.

Inspired by a touch of internet envy and the drive to be better, “Waiting” occupies a more upbeat, fun place on ‘Analog Youth’ complete with a string section and a bouncing chorus. Vocalist Devyn Jupp explains, “the lyrics in ‘Waiting’ were written whilst having one of those “Where has all the time gone?” panic moments you get when you’re in your 20s.”

“It’s so damn easy to get caught up in what people are doing on social media these days, and although seeing people doing all these amazing things and kicking big goals is great, it can also be really disheartening when you reflect on your own accomplishments, which may not stack up to these grand illusions on the internet. It starts to make you question all the time you’ve wasted not pursuing bigger things. This song is about going through those scenarios and ultimately finding that goal you want to reach and saying “Screw everything and everyone who’s going to get in my way, this is what I’m doing“.
