Backstory:
Beneficial Rose was formed in the heart of New York in 2011 by vocalist, Alice Clarke, and guitarist, Ethan Woods. Both were struggling solo artists who met at a small open mic night in a local cafe and quickly bonded over their shared love for music and their frustrations with the competitive music industry. They decided to join forces and form Beneficial Rose, a band that emphasized the importance of friendship, personal growth, and above all, the sheer joy of creating music. Bassist, David Ray, and drummer, Sophia Quinn, joined later after responding to a local ad seeking musician collaborators, and the band was complete. Despite various hardships and trials, Beneficial Rose’s unique sound and uplifting message quickly garnered them a loyal fanbase, and they’ve been making waves on the indie scene ever since.

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Em G
Beneath the sunset skies, you and I,
D C
Dreaming with open eyes, we fly.

(Chorus)
Em G D C
Look at us spinning around,
Em G D C
In a world that’s upside down.
Em G D C
Underneath the starlit skies,
Em G D C
We find where the magic lies.

(Verse 2)
Em G
In shadows and in light, we unite,
D C
With love as our guiding sight, it feels right.

(Chorus)
Em G D C
Look at us spinning around,
Em G D C
In a world that’s upside down.
Em G D C
Underneath the sunset skies,
Em G D C
We find our paradise.

[Bridge]
Em
In our dreams, we find a place,
G
A secret space,
D
Underneath the lace,
C
Of the sunset’s grace.

(Chorus)
Em G D C
Look at us spinning around,
Em G D C
In a world that’s upside down.
Em G D C
Underneath the sunset skies,
Em G D C
We find our paradise.
