Backstory:
Granular Pound started as a garage band in the small town of Bakersfield, California. The band members – Keith (vocals and guitar), Jason (bass), Mike (drums), and Sarah (keyboard) – were all high school buddies who shared a mutual love for alternative rock and a dream of making it big in the music industry. They would spend hours practicing in Keith’s garage after school, and over time, their distinctive sound started to attract a local fanbase. After several successful gigs at local venues, Granular Pound made a bold decision to move to Los Angeles in pursuit of a record deal. Their unique blend of gritty rock and introspective lyrics quickly garnered attention from indie labels, and they were soon playing shows at some of LA’s most iconic venues.

Title:
“Echoes and Shadows”
Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Em – G – D – A
In the echoes of the past, you’ll find our story,
Em – G – D – A
Stitched together like a patchwork, worn but still holding,
Em – G – D – A
In the shadows of the sun, we found our glory,
Em – G – D – A
In the echoes and shadows, our tale keeps unfolding.
(Chorus)
C – G – D – Em
Echoes and shadows, the past and the hollow,
C – G – D – Em
Our journey, our fight, the pain and the sorrow,
C – G – D – Em
But in the echoes and shadows, we find our tomorrow,
C – G – D – Em
In the echoes and shadows, we find our tomorrow.
(Repeat Verse 1 and Chorus)
