Backstory:
Every Principle was formed in the bustling city of New York in 2014. The members, lead vocalist Alex Troy, guitarist Lily Parker, bassist Mike Anderson, and drummer Andy Lee, were high school friends who shared a love for music and a passion for spreading messages of individuality, ingenuity, and inclusivity. The name Every Principle came from their belief that every principle of life, from love and truth to courage and resilience, is worth singing about and can resonate with people from all walks of life.
After a few years of creating music in Alex’s garage, Every Principle got their breakthrough with a self-released EP in 2015. They soon caught the attention of a major record label and found themselves writing and recording their debut album. Despite their success, the band still adheres to their roots, creating music that speaks about life’s principles and experiences.

Title:
“Echoes of Heartbeats”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[Em] Today, I [C] walked a lonely street,
[G] Memories haunted like a [D] phantom fleet,
[Em] Our story replayed on [C] repeat,
[G] Echoes of heartbeats, [D] bittersweet.
(Chorus)
[G] Echoes of heartbeats, [D] I still hear,
[Em] Your voice whispering [C] in my ear,
[D] A melody that draws [G] near,
[Em] The rhythm of love, [C] loud and clear.
(Verse 2)
[Em] At night, I [C] feel the empty space,
[G] Your shadow lingers, [D] a familiar trace,
[Em] In the quiet, I [C] see your face,
[G] Echoes of heartbeats, [D] keep the pace.
(Chorus)
[G] Echoes of heartbeats, [D] they resonate,
[Em] Your love is a song, [C] I celebrate,
[D] A melody that’s [G] never late,
[Em] The rhythm of memories, [C] we create.
