Het lijkt misschien een rare keuze om de nieuwe single van Amy Macdonald hier te publiceren. Deze Schotse singer-songwriter had achttien jaar geleden een Europese hit met de leuke folkpopsongs This Is The Life en Mr. Rock & Roll. Ondanks nog enkele albums en singles hoorden we echter verder weinig van haar. Amy maakt echter nog steeds erg leuke, vrolijke nummers waar je gewoon blij van wordt, waarom zouden we haar nieuwe single dan niet aan bod laten komen? Temeer ze ook nog eens in De Roma komt spelen op zaterdag 21 februari 2026. Kwestie van er op tijd bij te zijn.

Is This What You’ve Been Waiting For? verschijnt op 11 juli 2025 via Infectious.

LIVE

zaterdag 21 februari 2026, De Roma (Antwerpen, BE)

Amy Macdonald’s gift for crafting positive, uplifting songs from relatable stories of triumphs, struggles and hope have made her one of the UK’s most beloved artists. That talent has attracted a huge audience, leading to five albums which have gone Top 5 across Europe (including a #1 in the UK and two in Germany), with over 12 million sales, 12 international Platinum certifications, and over a billion streams. She’s a consistently huge draw in the live arena too, having played to more than 5 million people worldwide.

Amy says: “I feel very lucky to be in the place I am now. I’ve got this career, good friends, my family, and people still seem to want to hear my music, which is great. There’s a realness in me, something raw – honestly I’m winging it most of the time”. She adds: “This song was actually inspired by when they opened The Sphere in Las Vegas – I woke up one day and saw all of these videos of it, and I thought, this is incredible! I was totally blown away by it, and it reminded me of how gigs are experiences. It really inspired me and made me think about how music is for me, and gigs have always been the most important part. But streaming has created the demand for new music all of the time – it’s like a constant treadmill. This song is my view on how people always expect more music and social media content”.
