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.“
