Formed in 2013, The Waiting has been tearing through the American West, turning first-timers into superfans and longtime Petty lovers into loyal followers. Whether it’s a smash hit like “Refugee” or a deep cut that only the truest fans can hum by heart, they play with a fiery energy and tight musicianship that brings audiences to their feet and keeps them there. “We don’t try to recreate the exact record—we create moments,” says bassist and cofounder Doc Wiley, whose career spans everything from Grammy-winning mix engineer, studio designer, to touring musician. “If we’re playing ‘Breakdown,’ we might stretch it out, pass solos around, and then slam right back into that hook everyone knows. It’s a conversation, not a copy.”
