Backstory: Delicious Creature was formed in 2010 in the small beach town of Laguna Beach, California. The band members – vocalist and guitarist Johnny Lyon, bassist Sid Creek, drummer Abel Hart, and keyboardist Hannah Walker – all met during their high school years. Their love for music and their shared interest in surfing sparked a friendship that quickly morphed into something more. After a few impromptu jam sessions on the beach, the group realized they had a unique musical chemistry and decided to form Delicious Creature.
The band’s early years were spent performing at local bars and clubs, where they steadily built a fan base. As they polished their sound and refined their musical style, Delicious Creature caught the attention of a music producer on vacation. A record deal followed, propelling the band to national recognition. Their infectious melodies and lively stage performances have since made Delicious Creature a favorite among festival crowds.

Song Title: “Riding the Tides”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Intro)
[Em] Just another [C] sunny day, [G] riding the [D] tide away [x2]
(Verse 1)
[Em] Palm trees swayin’ in the [G] breeze,
[C] Got my surfboard, [D] life’s a tease,
[Em] The ocean’s calling, [G] can’t you see?
[C] Come and join me, [D] be free.
(Chorus)
[Em] We’re just riding the [G] tides,
[C] Living our lives, [D] feeling so alive,
[Em] Catching the waves, [G] under the sun’s blaze,
[C] It’s just another [D] day, riding the [G] tides away.
(Verse 2)
[Em] Salt in the air, [G] sand in my hair,
[C] Nothing compares, [D] to this love affair,
[Em] With the sea so [G] deep, and the sky so wide,
[C] Let’s keep on [D] riding, riding the tides.
(Chorus)
[Em] We’re just riding the [G] tides,
[C] Living our lives, [D] feeling so alive,
[Em] Catching the waves, [G] under the sun’s blaze,
[C] It’s just another [D] day, riding the [G] tides away.
(Outro)
[Em] Just another [C] sunny day, [G] riding the [D] tide away [x4]
