Backstory:
The origins of the band, Charming Door, harken back to the charming neighborhood parks and garages of rural Minnesota. Childhood friends, Aaron Mitchell (vocalist) and Jake Swanson (guitarist), found their escape in music amid the mundane routines of their small town. The duo began jamming together during their high school years, sharing an unshakeable bond and a passion for music that soon became their life. After years of honing their sound in local gigs, Charming Door came into its full form when they welcomed Madison Kim (bassist) and Sam Benson (drummer) to their ranks. The rest, as they say, is history.

‘Knocking on the Charming Door’
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] In the heart of our small town,
[G] Where we found our sweetest sound.
[Am] Underneath the starry crown,
[F] We strummed our tunes on the hallowed ground.
(Chorus)
[C] Knock, knock, knocking on the charming door,
[G] With our hearts rhythm and the guitar’s roar.
[Am] To the melody we adore,
[F] We’re on a journey, forever to explore.
(Verse 2)
[C] We’ve seen the highs, felt the lows,
[G] Played our hearts out at all the shows.
[Am] Through the laughter, through the woes,
[F] In our music, our life’s story flows.
(Chorus)
[C] Knock, knock, knocking on the charming door,
[G] With our dreams woven into the core.
[Am] It’s a bond, it’s a lore,
[F] It’s the love we’ve for music, forevermore.
(Bridge)
[Am] We are the echoes in the night,
[F] We are the passion, burning bright.
[C] In the rhythm, in the light,
[G] We find our freedom, we take flight.
(Chorus)
[C] Knock, knock, knocking on the charming door,
[G] Catching every moment before it soars.
[Am] It’s a symphony, it’s a roar,
[F] It’s the magic of music we can’t ignore.
Outro
[C] So here we stand on this musical shore,
[G] Knock, knock, knocking on the charming door.
[Am] With a promise to love music even more,
[F] We are Charming Door, hear our roar.
