  VINCENT MASON - waitin' on you to wear off - Interscope/UMG Nashville/Music Soup

Fast-rising singer-songwriter and Roswell, GA native Vincent Mason has released his first single of 2025, a year that is expected to take his career to an unprecedented level.  “waitin’ on you to wear oOff” is available now, both digitally and on all streaming platforms, via Interscope / UMG Nashville.

Written by Mason along with Jack Hummel and Colton Venner, the track offers a raw, emotional exploration of love, heartache, and the time it takes to move on after a breakup.  A modern country tune to its core, the new single tells the tale of heartache and hope, embodying the bittersweet realization that healing may not happen overnight, but it does happen.

A talented songwriter and a master of his craft, Vincent continues to find his niche in the ever-competitive modern country music industry.  With this latest release, though, he has taken his involvement in the final product to an even higher level.

“I was more hands on with this production than I have ever been before,” Mason said.  “I had such a clear vision of how I wanted this song to feel, and it just felt like the perfect time of year for it.”

From start to finish, this is a track for the modern country fans, with its unapologetic approach to our favorite genre with interluding elements of outside influences throughout the lyrically-witty, emotionally-relatable number.

“I’m still waiting on time

To do what it’s supposed to

I’m waiting on the midnight where I don’t feel your touch

I’m waiting on this heart

To not get so close to

The memories that turn around

And hurt it so much

I’m right where you left me

It’s taking too long

I’m still waiting on

You to wear off”

Serving as the first of hopefully many releases in 2025, “waitin’ on you to wear off” looks to continue the trend of ear-pleasing, melody-driven tunes that have landed the GA native stints as special guest on the tours of Luke Bryan and Miranda Lambert, as well as Parker McCollum, Ashley Cooke, and Niko Moon.

His breakout single “Hell is a Dance Floor” racked up over 75 million streams, followed by other releases including “Heart Like This,” “Train of Thought,” “Speak of the Devil,” and his debut EP ‘Can't Just Be Me.’  With even more new music on the way, Mason will be spending the upcoming months on his first-ever headline tour, the “Hell Is A Dance Floor Tour” which sold out during presales. Adding to his touring route, he will also appear on Riley Green’s “Damn Country Music Tour” in 2025 as well as festivals across the country.
