The band was founded in 2005 by lead vocalist and guitarist Jake Sullivan and drummer Casey Thompson, who both met while working at a local car factory. The two bonded over their shared love for rock music and soon found themselves jamming late into the night in Casey’s garage. Bassist Emma Reynolds joined them later, completing the trio.

Emin Cmaj
Underneath the city’s glow, where the midnight tides flow,
Dmaj Emin
We found our rhythm, in the heart of the night so cold.

In the echo of the steel, we learned how to feel,
Dmaj Emin
With every strum, every beat, our wounds began to heal.

Gmaj Dmaj
Midnight tides, washing away our pride,
Amaj Gmaj
In the rhythm of the night, we found our stride.
Gmaj Dmaj
Our hearts beat, in sync with the city’s heat,
Amaj Gmaj
In the melody of the steel, our souls meet.
(Verse 2 – E minor, C Major, D Major)
Emin Cmaj
Through the noise and the grind, we sought and we find,
Dmaj Emin
A harmony that binds, leaving the mundane behind.

In the rhythm of the steel, our hearts begin to unseal,
Dmaj Emin
With every note, every song, our love for music is real.
(Chorus – G Major, D Major, A Minor)
Gmaj Dmaj
Midnight tides, echoing our moonlit rides,
Amaj Gmaj
In the rhythm of the night, our spirit confides.
Gmaj Dmaj
Our hearts resonate, with the city’s fate,
Amaj Gmaj
In the melody of the steel, our dreams navigate.
