Alt pop angels The Montreals are back with their dramatic coming of age anthem 'Wasting Time'. Having toured the country, released countless Spotify playlists such as New Music Friday , and landing soundtracks on Netflix's 'Terrace House' they now set their sets on a bold new pop direction with lyrics that make you want to scream in the car!

Wasting Time

“Have you ever woken up at around 3am and had a weird feeling there may or may not be a ghost around? Dating kind of feels like that sometimes where you only hear from people at godawful hours of the night. In this case, I really wanted to be with this person and so in ‘GHOST’ there is a cute suggestion that “I could die” and be a ghost too, I don’t care, I’d do anything to be with them.” - Stef

“Ghosts are a recurring theme on the EP. I think a lot of people right now are kind of living in a fog state - very self consumed on their phones and never really wanting to commit to anything or anyone. So when you find someone who is genuinely present and real, you want to hold on to that.” - Stef
