Rock Duo Waver Release New Album ‘Space and Time’

Rock duo Waver return with a resonant statement of intent on their new full-length album, Space and Time. A 13-track offering steeped in nostalgia yet driven by forward momentum, the record melds the grit of 1990s rock with the refined perspective of decades-long musical partnership. Now streaming across all major platforms, it marks both a revival and a reinvention.

The story of Waver begins in the late ’90s at Colgate University in Hamilton, New York, where Mike Sartor and Dorsey Stone first crossed paths as roommates. What followed was an organic creative alliance built on contrast and chemistry—Sartor’s classic rock songwriting grounding Stone’s intricate, progressive guitar flourishes. From the outset, their sound was equal parts muscular and melodic, intimate yet expansive.

After earning a reputation as a fixture of the Boston live music circuit in the early 2000s, the duo stepped away to pursue divergent paths. Their reunion in late 2024, however, was guided by clarity and purpose: to craft a record that honoured their roots while embracing their growth as musicians and storytellers. The result is a body of work that feels both reflective and revitalised.

Recorded at Ugly Duck Studios in Boston, Space and Time is a masterclass in collaboration. Sartor handles lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano, organ, and bass, while Stone contributes lead vocals and searing guitar work. Drummer Brendan McGillin anchors the record’s rhythmic core, doubling as a sound engineer alongside Dan Babai. Highlights include Stone’s “Always Awake” and “Delivery Is Free,” alongside the jointly penned “I Miss You.”

Across its 56-minute runtime, Space and Time captures the delicate tension between memory and momentum. From the shimmering tones of “Silvertone” to the aching vulnerability of “I Miss You,” Waver deliver an album that resonates with authenticity. It’s a bold reintroduction—one that bridges past and present with striking emotional clarity.

“With ‘Space and Time,’ Waver delivers a powerful return that feels both timeless and deeply personal, capturing the spirit of ‘90s rock while showcasing the growth and chemistry that only decades of collaboration can produce,” shares music publicist Danielle Holian, Decent Music PR.

Doja Cat brings her Tour Ma Vie World Tour to Toronto on Wednesday, November 25, with a 7:30 p.m. show at Scotiabank Arena. It is one of the last stops on the biggest headlining run of her career, and it lands in the middle of a heavy week for the building.

The tour supports Vie, her fifth studio album, released in September 2025. The record is an 1980s inspired turn back toward pop, led by the singles “Jealous Type” and “Gorgeous,” and the live show has been built as a full scale arena production. Latto joins the bill as special guest for the entire North American leg, which runs 31 dates from the October 1 opener in Detroit to the December 1 finale at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Toronto gets the show near the end of the run, with Boston on November 23 before it and Montreal on November 27 after it. By the time she reaches Scotiabank Arena, the production will have played more than twenty North American arenas, on top of earlier legs across Oceania, Asia, Latin America and Europe. Earlier in November the tour also plays Miami, Tampa, Orlando and Atlanta.

Fans have been getting a look inside the tour straight from Doja Cat herself. She has been filming the run on Ray-Ban Meta glasses, posting point of view footage from backstage, soundchecks and life on the road, so the Toronto crowd will see a show that has been documented almost night by night. Tickets for November 25 are on sale through Ticketmaster. With the Garden shows in New York closing the tour one week later, the Toronto date is one of the final chances to see this production before the run wraps.
