The Sea At Midnight, the musical project of LA’s own Vince Grant, just dropped a killer new track called “Wait For Rain.” It hit the airwaves on October 4th, 2024, and it’s definitely worth listening to. This tune is a sweet mix of post-punk vibes, new-wave feels, and synth-pop goodness. It’s got The Sea At Midnight’s signature sound all over it, with lyrics that’ll make you think. Chris King, the dude who’s worked his magic with Cold Showers and Kai Tak, handled the production, and boy, did he nail it.
In “Wait For Rain,” Grant’s tackling the big bad wolf of climate change, specifically the mega-drought that’s been giving our planet a hard time. The lyrics? Well, let’s say they’re a wake-up call. Grant’s singing about Mother Nature screaming for help, landing on heavy things like those nasty wildfires we’ve been seeing. But don’t worry, this isn’t a downer of a song. Instead, it’s an alarm, wrapped up in a package of synth-pop goodness. The lyrics are like a musical kick in the pants, pushing us to get off our butts and do something about this mess we’re in.
This tune’s got some seriously cool instrumentation going on. The synths on this track are something else – they sparkle like you’re staring up at the night sky. And that beat? It’ll get your head bobbing before you know it. The interplay between Vince Grant’s vocals and that lush production hit you right, playing off the rich production in a way that keeps you glued to your speakers all through. It’s got that perfect mix of rock energy and deep lyrics that’ll speak to any fan of the genre.
The Sea At Midnight is making some serious noise in LA’s music scene, and his live shows are becoming the hot ticket in town. They’ve got a few gigs lined up for early 2025, so if you want to catch that raw energy in person, you better mark your calendars.
With all the climate stuff going on, The Sea At Midnight’s “Wait For Rain” is a song with a real message. Listen to this banger now, and maybe you’ll feel inspired to join the call for change. This track is a rock anthem for our times, and it’s clear that Vince Grant is here to stay.
