New Hope Club are back! The trio released their brand new song Don’t Go Wasting Time late last week. This marks the band’s first release of 2023 and is taken from their highly anticipated second album which is yet to be released.
Don’t Go Wasting Time is a stripped-down song with lyrics talking about letting go of past mistakes. The song projects how much Blake, Reece and George, who take huge inspiration from The Beatles, have grown as songwriters and artists.
New Hope Club said of the song:
We wrote Don’t Go Wasting Time on a gloomy day in Ealing, London during a period of reflection. For so many years together as New Hope Club, we have learned to never take our foot off the pedal, don’t waste any time, and enjoy the ride. When we were looking at which single to release first this year, it made complete sense to go with this one. It’s a reminder to keep moving forward and try not to get weighed down by your mistakes.
As well as releasing the song, New Hope Club’s fans were also treated to the music video. The band dropped the music video at 4 pm on the same day and you can watch it down below here.
New Hope Club have also just completed a global tour which saw them play headline shows in London, New York, Los Angeles and Tokyo. They teased fans on tour by playing unreleased songs, including Don’t Go Wasting Time, and showing behind-the-scenes videos. The tour kickstarted the new era for the band just after their self-titled debut album reached number 5 on the UK Charts.
