Backstory:

Hailing from the heart of rural Vermont, Warm Pound came together through a shared love for soul-touching music and a deep connection to the earth. The band consists of childhood friends, Jack O’Leary (vocals, guitar), Tommy Baker (drums), and sisters, Rachel and Claire McNally (keyboard, back vocals, and bass respectively). They stopped pursuing their individual careers in 2005, opting to invest all their energy into creating a musical identity that resonates with the warmth of humanity and the soothing pound of the earth.

Warm Pound’s journey started from singing at local bars and pubs to headlining at some of America’s most popular music festivals. Their music, although deeply rooted in the rural scenery of their hometown, touches upon the universal themes of love, loss, joy, and sorrow. Over the years, Warm Pound has managed to gather a dedicated fanbase who resonates with their unique blend of music and the authentic emotions that it encapsulates.

Song Title:

“Earthbound You and I”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse)
[G] Down the [Em] valley, where the [C] rivers intertwine,
[D] You and I, [G] lost in time.
[G] Beneath the [Em] willow, we [C] etched our sacred vow,
[D] Earthbound [G] you and I, even [D] now.

(Chorus)
[G] Running through the [Em] fields, under the [C] endless sky,
[D] Echoes of our [G] laughter, whispers of our [D] sigh.
[G] Holding on the [Em] promise, never asking [C] why,
[D] Earthbound [G] you and I, [D] till we die.

(Verse)
[G] Seasons change, but [Em] our love remains the [C] same,
[D] Burning like a [G] steady flame.
[G] Through the [Em] storms and sunshine, [C] our roots grow deep and strong,
[D] Earthbound [G] you and I, [D] life-long.

(Chorus)
[G] Dancing with the [Em] moonlight, basking in the [C] daylight’s glow,
[D] Timeless as the [G] rhythm of the river’s [D] flow.
[G] In this world of [Em] transient, we found where we [C] belong,
[D] Earthbound [G] you and I, [D] in our song.

(Bridge)
[Em] And when the [C] world spins fast, [G] we slow dance,
[D] Finding solace in [Em] each other’s glance.
[C] Whispering the [D] words, this is our chance,
[G] Earthbound [D] you and I, in [C] trance.

(Chorus)
[G] Embracing the [Em] morning dew, singing with the [C] nightingale’s cry,
[D] Living in a [G] rhythm, under the [D] vast sky.
[G] Bound by the [Em] promise, unveiled in [C] lover’s sigh,
[D] Earthbound [G] you and I, [D] till the day we die.
