Name: Waste Of Time by DROPPER
Duration: 4 min 8 s
Description: Dropper is comprised of veterans musicians of the New York City scene who have done their fair share of “tours to nowhere”. While much of this album centers around self-reflection, “Waste of Time” addresses the specific frustration that is often felt when faced with the realities of touring on a small scale. It’s okay though, we’re living the dream.

A creative departure from the bands signature sound, Only Feel It When I’m With You builds upon the new textures and sounds recently delivered with the surprise drop of Midnight and Under The Surface.

With a slower tempo and mesmerizing melody, the single features the hypnotic vocals of The Jezabels singer Hayley Mary who adds her uniquely melancholic voice to one of the most daringly beautiful tracks Baby Strange have released to date.

Speaking on the collaboration, Hayley says: “I met the Baby Strange lads at the Priory in Glasgow. Loved their vibe and and we hit it off straight away. There’s a great little rock scene bubbling in that city that I’ve missed while I’ve not been able to get there, so I’m incredibly stoked to be part of this track and stay connected with them in a musical way. It’s a killer and I look forward to coming and playing it live with them sometime in the near future. 

Adding to this, Johnny Madden says:  “This is one of the most exciting singles we’ve ever released as a band. Writing it took us completely out of our comfort zone and pushed us into a new territory as writers and players. 
We’ve never had a featured vocalist on a track before, but knew right away that it had to be Hayley. The song just lends itself perfectly to her vocal style.
We’ve known Hayley for a long time so being able to work together on this was so exciting”

The artwork and visuals connected to the single follow on the series of recent releases, exploring an alternative world that offers an insight into the bitter promises of late stage capitalism. Brought to life by Glasgow based Visual Animator ‘Bovine’ the artwork itself has become a talking point for fans and media who eagerly await the next instalment.

The wait is over.

Waste of Time

Waste Of Time

We’re Dropper from Brooklyn, NY with some gritty and plucky songs that touch on the melancholy, absurd, and emotional notions of finding yourself, sometimes in-spite of yourself, and baring your truths (with cans of cheap beer).
