New Single Release: “Waiting for the Weekend”

Release Date: August 13, 2021

Jamie Hansen is an accomplished singer-songwriter from Wyoming and she wrote a cool, summer song accompanied by a fun and uplifting video,”Waitin’ for the Weekend” that dropped on August 13, 2021. The single is a pop-country song and the video was filmed with friends having fun at the water, camping, grilling, driving and hails to the positive, upbeat, sun-filled nature of the season.

Hansen said, “I wrote the song a few years back, as I was waiting for my friend to pick me up for a Summer camping trip. We were going up to a spot in the Wheatland Canyon outside of Laramie, Wyoming, where you can cliff jump, which I had never done before, and we were going to fish and grill and camp there. As I was waiting, I got a little antsy and bored, so I broke out my guitar. I had been struggling to write songs on the guitar, as well as more upbeat songs, but this one just flowed right out.” She continues, “As a writer, I specialize in making people feel deeply. This song was a break from that. When I play this song, I simply want to have fun and I think that’s something we all need from time to time.”

Rock at Night says: “This is an easy and breezy pop tune with a layering of country, so it can appeal to any listener. A feel good song! Waiting for more from this singer-songwriter that knows how to capture sunlight and good times with her tunes and lyrics.“

Jamie Hansen has videos coming out, will be playing shows and you can check out the video for this track below. As she is a prolific singer-songwriter, has a lot more music coming out! “Waitin’ for the Weekend” was produced by super Producer/Engineer Chuck Alkazian (Pop Evil, Soundgarden, Tantric) at legendary Pearl Sound Studios (Asking Alexandria, Eminem, Filter).
