Nashville’s Homes at Night Tease Debut EP ‘If You Were A Stranger’ with “Wasted On You” Single

Nashville-based indie rock duo Homes at Night have revealed their single “Wasted On You,” a taster of their forthcoming debut EP, If You Were A Stranger, dropping December 2nd via Hazel Street Records.

One-half of the group, Hank Compton, comments:

“Written with JT Daily and Sad Penny, the inspiration behind the song came from spending time away from who I was dating at the time. The whole idea behind the lyric ‘wish I was wasted on you’ came from me being tired of spending my nights in bars and not with them.”

Touching on their forthcoming album, the group shares:

“This EP feels more like the mark of an era in our lives instead of just a batch of songs we wrote. The whole thing was made in the midst of massive changes in both of our worlds ranging from relationships dissolving to moving out of places that made an imprint on us, and on top of that we were in the heat of a pandemic. Reflecting on the creation of it feels like a fever dream, but a very nostalgic one to say the least. It was like the whole world was falling apart but having this to work on created so many incredible memories. Creating this felt confessional, like it was our own little world that we could hide in but looking back it was probably getting these thoughts and emotions on paper that helped us heal and move on.”
