The evolution of Scott Helman continues today as the singer-songwriter releases “Wait No More.” (DOWNLOAD/STREAM) “Wait No More” will be featured on Scott’s next collection of music, due out later this year.
A music video for “Wait No More,” shot in Scott’s Toronto home while self-isolating, will be released June 17.
Says Scott: “For as long as I can remember I’ve been singing the phrase ‘wait no more’ as a stand-in for lyrics when writing. It started to get on my nerves, and I wanted it gone from my subconscious. I thought the only way to do this was to use it as a title. So, with some friends in LA, I started writing with weak hopes of reaching any real end. I just wanted the phrase out of my head.”
“It was a strange start, but it led me down a road of self-discovery, and what came out was a song that captured my hopes and fears simultaneously. I suppose there was a reason why I had been singing that phrase so often, and it came out in the end.”
“This song marks a new chapter for me as an artist. It marks the start of living freely, of appreciating each moment, and of waiting no more. I hope it brings you peace in these strange times, and that it illuminates the small beautiful moments of your life as it has for mine.”
Scott Helman, a 2020 JUNO nominee for Single of the Year (“Hang Ups”), has established himself as one of Canada’s leading songwriters whose versatility promises a limitless ceiling. The Toronto artist has toured around the world with the likes of Shawn Mendes, Vance Joy and Tegan and Sara, and has collaborated with Alessia Cara, Blas Cantó and Hunter Hayes. With 2 platinum and 3 gold singles, 5 career JUNO nominations and a worldwide record deal through Warner Music Canada, Scott Helman is poised for an international breakout.
