Waking Lions
"Waking Lions" is a song by American rock band Pop Evil. It was their lead single off of their album '' Pop Evil''. It topped the US ''Billboard'' Mainstream Rock Songs chart in March 2018. Background The song was first written by frontman Leigh Kakaty in March 2017 during his solo writing sessions for fifth studio album; fearing that he sometimes overwhelms the band's writing sessions, he had split off to do his own writing separate from the rest of the band while they concurrently worked on writing their own material.

Kakaty also set up video recordings of band members, family, ...
