In Waiting
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Waiting is a rock band from Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada.
[edit] Overview
In Waiting formed in 1999. The band underwent several lineup changes before settling on its current members, though the group's "core" have been writing and performing together since 2000. While main influences are largely pulled from classic rock, the band often incorporates a heavier feel with a very melodic approach, and sometimes includes Celtic elements as well as a more modern pop and contemporary feel. A self-produced album composed of a dozen original songs titled Please Stand By was recorded and released by the band in early-mid 2004.
The group's first performance together was an appearance at the 2005 East Coast Music Awards in the band's hometown of Sydney, Nova Scotia in February 2005. The band has since played numerous clubs throughout the Cape Breton area, building a reputation for an aggressive high energy stage show with a thick sonic foundation. Notable performances include opening for Canadian rock legends Trooperin October 2005.
