Los Angeles-based alternative duo CA in LA share their brand new single “Waking Up”!
Marking the second single from their upcoming vinyl reissue Hindsight: Deluxe Edition, slated for release on September 10th. This latest cinematic track explores the internal battle of one’s journey overcoming harmful thoughts and behaviours while in pursuit of self-preservation.
“When working on new music for the epilogue of our studio album, Hindsight, we took an honest look at ourselves. The truth was, we had a codependent relationship with alcohol. When we finally decided to get out of our own way, everything was so much clearer,” explains CA in LA. “‘Waking Up’ addresses coming to terms with who we were and separating ourselves from comfortable destruction.”
This song documents the process of recognizing toxic habits and choosing to leave behind the life that once felt familiar. Through their reflective songwriting and lush, textured production, the song embraces a feeling of optimism, where the song ultimately becomes a symbol of resilience and perseverance.
Written by Courtney Birk and Ashleigh Coffelt, “Waking Up” features guitar by Coffelt, keys by Birk, bass by Jake Minter, and drums by Marc Nieto. Produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Nieto of Kandid Productions, the single was executively produced by The Ohana.
