Desarae Dee x Donyea Goodman: Telephone....Wait
Desarae Dee and Donyea Goodman Release Reflective New Instrumental Single "Telephone...Wait"
by Jack Rush
Canadian fusion artist Desarae Dee has joined forces with American musician Donyea Goodman for the release of "Telephone...Wait," a new instrumental single that serves as the lead offering from their upcoming collaborative EP, Outta Left Field.
Centered around themes of anticipation, connection, and uncertainty, the composition explores the emotional experience of waiting through an arrangement that relies entirely on musical expression rather than lyrics. The track allows melody, harmony, and performance to communicate a narrative that many listeners may find familiar, creating space for personal interpretation while maintaining a clear emotional focus.
The collaboration developed after Goodman discovered Desarae Dee through her popular #4ChordWorship series online. What began as a series of remote musical exchanges eventually evolved into a creative partnership, resulting in a project that blends the artists' shared appreciation for expressive and emotionally driven instrumental music.
For Desarae Dee, whose career spans performance, composition, production, and music education, the release continues a body of work that often explores themes of reflection, faith, and human connection. Goodman brings a complementary musical perspective to the partnership, helping shape a sound that balances technical musicianship with accessibility.
"Telephone...Wait" also offers an early introduction to the artistic direction of Outta Left Field. Rather than prioritizing traditional song structures or lyrical storytelling, the project places emphasis on atmosphere, interaction, and emotional nuance. The result is a recording that invites listeners to engage with the music on a more personal level, drawing meaning from the spaces between expectation and outcome.
Since its release, the single has begun attracting attention across international radio and media outlets, further expanding the reach of both artists as they prepare for the arrival of the full EP.
With "Telephone...Wait," Desarae Dee and Donyea Goodman deliver a thoughtful instrumental work that highlights the communicative power of music, demonstrating how emotion and narrative can be conveyed without a single word being spoken.
