Fireflight Offering Hope "For Those Who Wait"

American Christian rock band Fireflight have streamed the new video for their latest single "For Those Who Wait," the title track from band's third full-length album "For Those Who Wait," the highly-anticipated follow-up to Fireflight's breakout sophomore album, "Unbreakable."
Formed in 1999, they were the best kept secret of a part of central Florida that's not exactly known for its music scene, and they spent years playing shows and building a following for their female-fronted positive rock. All the hard work paid off when the Flicker Records debut "The Healing of Harms" introduced them to the world in 2006, and 2008's breakout hit "Unbreakable" captured the attention of Christian rock fans even more. Now over a decade since their career began, Fireflight is ready to unleash their third album "For Those Who Wait."
The title track "For Those Who Wait," produced by Rob Hawkins, once again delivers lead singer Dawn Michele's soaring vocals and the band's signature melodic Rock. it jumpstarts the album with a slightly new twist for them. Symphonic string flourishes are all the hard rock rage lately, and Fireflight uses them to powerful effect here. An orchestral intro clears the way for Dawn's first battle cry: "This is for those who wait!" and melts into a wall of thundering rock similar to Red or Skillet. The music ebbs and flows between softer verses and pounding choruses, as Dawn's voice alternates between the triumphant screams of the chorus and the fragile whispers of the quiet acoustic bridge. It's a powerful opener all around that recalls "Unbreakable" without being a clone, taking a slower, more methodical approach than its predecessor without sacrificing the epic feeling.
Great mix of symphonic and rock all in one song, "For Those Who Wait" introduces new musical elements coupled with vulnerable lyrics, offering hope and recovery to recharge listeners. A dynamic progression with songs, Fireflight encourages fans to reach out to a world eager to find healing and strength in the waiting, stating "the hard lessons make the difference, and the difference makes it all worth it." As the lead single, it definitely will be a single that "The pressure makes us stronger, the struggle makes us hunger, the hard lessons make the difference and the difference makes it worth it." Another one of those powerful messages that the band usually gives.
Premiere rock band Fireflight continues to gain national exposure and acclaim, nominated for Artist of the Year at the 40th Annual Dove Awards. For more than ten years, Fireflight has remained tireless road warriors on the concert circuit, playing more than 100 shows a year. "For Those Who Wait" is sure to please Christian rock fans as another entry in Fireflight's great career.
