Backstory:
Long-Term Start was conceptualized in the bustling city of Austin, Texas, during the hot summer of 2012. The band was the brainchild of childhood friends Jake Harmon and Leo Peters, who reconnected after several years apart and discovered they both had a passion for music and a knack for songwriting. They began by playing at small gigs around the city, slowly expanding their reach as they honed their style and sound. Their big break came after a chance encounter with a record producer at a local festival. Impressed by their original material, the producer signed them on the spot, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Title:
“Chasing Shadows”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am – G – F – G
We lived like ghosts, in the back of our minds,
In a world full of shadows, where the sun never shines.
We’re stuck in a race, in a world that’s hollow,
Chasing shadows that we can’t follow.
(Chorus)
C – G – Am – F
We’ve been running in circles, trying to find the light,
Through the shadows and the echoes, in the stillness of the night.
But we’re not giving up, we’re not falling apart,
‘Cause we’re in it for the long run, it’s a Long-Term Start.
(Verse 2)
Am – G – F – G
We’re dreamers and believers, in a world that’s lost,
In a sea of faces, paying the cost.
But we’ve got our music, we’ve got our heart,
In a world of shadows, it’s a Long-Term Start.
(Chorus)
C – G – Am – F
We’ve been running in circles, trying to find the light,
Through the shadows and the echoes, in the stillness of the night.
But we’re not giving up, we’re not falling apart,
‘Cause we’re in it for the long run, it’s a Long-Term Start.
