Newcomers to the indie scene, Reflect are already proving they’re not here to play it safe. The Belfast-based four-piece have burst onto the radar with “Wasting My Time”, a sharp, hook-filled debut that’s turning heads even before its official release.
Formed in early 2025, Reflect wasted no time getting into the studio to capture the energy that fuels their sound, and it shows. “Wasting My Time” channels tight guitar work, a driving rhythm section and instantly memorable melodies into a track that feels both polished and raw in all the right places. It’s the kind of song that lands in your head and decides to stay for a while.

The buzz has already begun to build. The single has earned early support across major Irish and Northern Irish stations, including confirmed airplay on BBC Radio Ulster and recent spins on Raidió Fáilte. Notably, “Wasting My Time” was crowned Grassroots Track of the Week on RTÉ 2FM, receiving multiple plays throughout the final week of May, a rare achievement for a debut.
Reflect’s timing couldn’t be better. With “Wasting My Time” landing today, 28 June, the band are poised to turn that early momentum into something much bigger. For fans of tight indie grooves and unapologetically catchy songwriting, this is one you definitely do not want to miss.
