Heavy music and emotionally revealing lyrics sometimes get a band stereotyped. Coloradoâs Wasting Yesterday is breaking from tradition. By combining diverse influences to create a unique sound that collectively confronts old memories, life experiences and raw energy into a feeling that has to be seen, not just heard. In the summer of 2003 Justin started writing with guitarist, Jsin. Both being veterans of the so-cal music scene and fans of all music, songs flowed, rhythms united to create soulful original compositions. The two often found themselves wandering the streets, Jsin wailing away on his acoustic guitar and Justin singing what ever came from his heart. By winter, bassist, Matt and drummer, Shawn had joined to collaborate on the process. Their first jam together was riveting, Jsinâs melodic and infectious grooves combined with Shawnâs rhythmic technique, Mattâs soulful, eclectic style and Justinâs emotionally driven lyrics inspired them to start writing tracks immediately. Everyone brings a different influence and background to the band that blends together to form one passion. Wasting Yesterday is quickly building a consistent fan base. With many shows currently under their belt and an incredible showcase performance for three major record labels at the Hard Rock Café in Salt Lake City, UT, the band now has the attention of the music industry. In the summer of 2005 Wasting Yesterday competed and won against thirteen other Midwest bands in a Battle of the Bands competition called Progression through Music II. Wasting Yesterday dominated the stage with their own powerful musical creations combined with an energetic, uninhibited stage show and came away with more experience that continues to build the power house foursomes path to the international stage. With the release of their long awaited album âListenâ, the band is laying the ground work for change. This is a band that fits no stereo types, that follows its own path. Their tight-knit chemistry and non-chalant approach to songs keep the crowds wanting more. A live show often displays the bands creative approach to writing. The foursome feeds off the energy of the crowd and creates new musical compositions on the spot. Taking flavors from funk, metal, jazz and psychedelic rock, Wasting Yesterday takes free form jamming to a whole new level. With one goal in mind. The convergence of styles. The enjoyment of live performance and raw musical energy. Wasting Yesterday is turning heads, and their story has just begun.
