With soaring vocals and poignant pianos, Dan B. Patrick makes his sweeping debut with Waiting.

London-based musician Dan B. Patrick makes an unforgettable introduction with his soaring debut single, Waiting. Originally hailing from Ireland and Wales, Dan played his first gig in Belfast at the tender age of 16 before he moved to London for university, and he now captures his musical prowess on record.

Allowing his vocals to take centre stage by having a minimalistic piano-based accompaniment, the rawness of Dan’s voice and the power held within them will strike directly into your core. You will feel moved by the tide of emotions that lie behind the lyrics, which come across through swelling textures and the rousing melody to leave you hooked on every last note. The whole track possesses a magnitude and vastness that will remind you of how impactful music can be, and you’ll be left with an excitement about what more Dan has to offer.

Speaking more on the track, Dan shares:

‘Waiting’ is a song about becoming completely lost in someone, consumed by them almost. First and foremost, it is a love song but it also explores the darker elements of a relationship. It is about being unashamedly vulnerable to a person, even if that person is careless with that vulnerability. I’m generally less interested in writing about the emotions that lie on the periphery of human experience and ‘Waiting’ doesn’t feel like an exception.

It took me about 4 years to finish this song. I remember accidentally stumbling across the piano motif in one of my first piano lessons but I could never find the words to match the delicacy of the piano part. After constructing and deconstructing the song many times over those years, one day the chorus slipped out and I knew that it was finally finished.
