The Lunar Year release new music video for ‘Hey! Wait!’

THE LUNAR YEAR have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Hey! Wait!, is the brand new single from the alternative duo and marks their first new music since the release of their self-titled EP, which was released in May last year.

The new single was written in Los Angeles with BLINK-182’s Mark Hoppus and Grammy Award-nominated producer Matt Malpass [BLINK-182, MACHINE GUN KELLY, LIL NAS X].

Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist/bassist Connor Ball says, Hey! Wait! reflects on my time being on tour over the last ten years. I wanted to create a song to remind myself to always be present in whatever I’m doing whether it be playing shows or with family and friends. I came to a point in my life – I think over lockdown – where I realised that some of the best times of my life had just passed me by in a heartbeat and I wish I’d taken a second to take it all in.

We wrote the song in LA with Mark Hoppus which was a dream come true. BLINK-182 inspired me so much while I was growing up, and to be able to sit in a room and create something so personal with Mark was amazing. He’s one of the nicest and most talented guys I’ve ever met. With everything he’s been through in his life,I feel like he could relate in ways that other people that I’ve written with couldn’. Bring the song to life in the studio was a real special moment.”
