Alt-rock artist Collington returns with his latest single, “Waiting for Daylight (ARRÊT),” available now on all major streaming platforms. The new track captures the tension of being caught in a forced pause–where doubt feels heavy, and clarity remains just out of reach. Built on a pop-forward rock foundation with a reflective core, “Waiting for Daylight (ARRÊT)” lives in the in-between. It’s the honest space of wrestling through frustration while holding onto hope. With melodic energy reminiscent of Switchfoot, the song balances urgency and vulnerability without overcomplicating its message. “Darkness falls once again And I will try to pretend That it’s day out But I know I’m wrong.” From the opening…
