Backstory:
Overjoyed Myth started its journey in a small town in North Carolina. The band originally consisted of high school friends, Jason “Jay” Scott on vocals and keyboard, Miles “Milo” Thompson on guitar, and Eliot “Eli” Harlow on the drums. Jay, Milo, and Eli, all shared the same dream of creating music that could transcend boundaries and inspire people. After graduating high school, they decided to venture into the city with big dreams and an unshakeable belief in their music. They played for small gigs at late-night cafes and local music festivals, slowly building their reputation. Their perseverance finally paid off when they got their big break at a renowned music festival, where a renowned music producer spotted their talent and offered them a record deal.

Title:
“Chasing Shadows”
Full song lyrics:
Verse 1: [Em, G, D, A]
In the realm of blazing hopes, where dreams are born,
We’re chasing shadows, to the break of dawn.
Through the tangled times, in the corridor of pain,
Our hearts beat in rhythm, ignoring the disdain.
Chorus: [C, G, D, Em]
Chasing Shadows, in the starlight,
Our spirits high, in the quiet night.
Casting spells, with our melody,
We are making our own legacy.
Verse 2: [Em, G, D, A]
In the land of weary souls, we found our vibe,
Playing music, making our tribe.
Against the odds, we sing our hearts,
In this world, creating our own charts.
Chorus: [C, G, D, Em]
Chasing Shadows, in the moonlight,
Our spirits soar, in the magical night.
With each strum, we’re setting free,
A piece of our soul, for the world to see.

“I discovered Overjoyed Myth at a local festival three years ago, and I’ve been a hardcore fan ever since. Their music has an ethereal quality that resonates with my soul. It’s as if they’re not just creating music, but they’re sharing pieces of their hearts with their listeners, which is incredibly rare and beautiful. ‘Chasing Shadows’ particularly has had a profound impact on me. It’s a song that has helped me through some dark times and it always reminds me to keep chasing my dreams no matter the obstacles. Overjoyed Myth is more than a band to me, they’re my beacon of hope and inspiration. I can’t wait to see what they come up with next!”
