This Waking Moment understands change. The young men that make up the Charlotte-based power-pop quintet have all been involved with Charlotte’s music scene for several years, since their early high school days. They come from humble beginnings where their first shows were High School talent shows and backyard house parties. Rallying the enthusiastic support of their hometown friends and fans, This Waking Moment set their sights on bigger things.
Bigger stages are one thing they landed. Within their first 2 years as a band, This Waking Moment was sharing stages with Charlotte’s finest rock bands. They even accomplished such huge goals as playing the monster punk rock festival Warped Tour in 2005 and 2007, and opening for post-hardcore veterans From Autumn To Ashes as well as bands such as The Ataris, Hopesfall, and The Forecast. This Waking Moment has had their fair share of stress and strain, but has showed nothing but relentless perseverance in capturing their dreams of playing music. Enduring a few difficult lineup changes involving lifelong friends, ever-impossible to please music scenesters, critics, and the tough balance between full-time education, part-time work, and huge musical aspirations has proven to be no easy task. These are the tests they have overcome in order to establish themselves among the best up-and-coming rock bands today.
When listening to the changes between the first This Waking Moment recordings, the listener will find a group of young musicians searching for their identity and sound, but the listener always finds a band that is growing and changing for the better. With the newest addition of vocalist Sean Helman it is evident they have found the dynamic the members have been looking for. Through member changes and much time spent writing diverse material in order to pinpoint the best musical expression possible, they have come to deliver some of today’s finest pop-punk with an intelligent demeanor. Sincerity is something that seems to have come naturally with the most recent recordings.
This Waking Moment has released themselves from the world of trivial cross-genre classifications, scene aesthetics, and musical inhibitions. They’ve created music that plays to their strengths, accentuates the extraordinary dynamic between the musicians, and is easy to listen to at any given time. Rather than playing to one musical extreme or the other, they’ve cut ties with the musical boundaries previously placed on them and have given listeners great, catchy, personable rock and roll.
