Originally a trio of childhood friends – Ray, Patrick, and Scott – they spent their high school years making noise, discovering their sound, and dreaming of a life beyond their sleepy hometown. After graduation, they added a fourth member, the charismatic front-woman Lily, whos powerful voice and magnetic stage presence quickly became a defining feature of the band. Having honed their skills and built a significant local following, Paltry Seed moved to the bustling music scene of Nashville, where their unique sound garnered attention and their journey towards national recognition began.

Title:
“Scattered Dreams”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Wandering souls, [G] left our hometown,
[D] Chasing shadows, [Em] on the lost and found,
[C] Wide-eyed, hopeful, [G] in the city’s gleam,
[D] We are the paltry seed, [Em] of scattered dreams.
(Chorus)
[C] From the heartland, [G] to the city lights,
[D] We’re sowing songs, [Em] into the night,
[C] Our roots may be humble, [G] our spirits high,
[D] We’re the paltry seed, [Em] reaching for the sky.
(Verse 2)
[C] Strumming chords, [G] in smoky bars,
[D] Under the canopy, [Em] of city stars,
[C] We found our rhythm, [G] in the urban stream,
[D] We are the paltry seed, [Em] of scattered dreams.
(Chorus)
[C] From the heartland, [G] to the city sights,
[D] We’re planting melodies, [Em] into the twilight,
[C] Our roots may be simple, [G] our hopes high,
[D] We’re the paltry seed, [Em] reaching for the sky.
Testimonial – Favorite Fan:
“I’m Jane, and I’ve been following Paltry Seed since their garage band days. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same town as them, watching them transform from a small town group to the amazing band they are today. Their music always spoke to me, it’s raw, real and it resonates with the journey so many of us take, from humble beginnings to chase our dreams. They’ve never forgotten where they’ve come from and they’ve always stayed true to their sound. For me, their music is a homecoming, a reminder of where I’m from and where I’m going. Paltry Seed isn’t just my favorite band, they’re my inspiration.”
