Backstory:
Opulent Answer was formed in the vibrant music scenes of London, circa 2012. The band’s lineup consists of four members: lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, Dave Ashley, lead guitarist, Tim Parkins, bassist, Will Brentwood, and drummer, Chris Harper. The quartet were friends long before they became bandmates. Dave, Tim, and Will had known each other since grade school, and Chris joined the trio during their college days. They started off jamming in garages, which eventually led to club gigs, and before they knew it, they had a fanbase and a record deal.
The name “Opulent Answer” was a product of their profound fascination with philosophical discussions, symbolizing their belief that music is the ‘opulent’ or ‘luxurious’ answer to the complexities of life. Their journey continues to be driven by this ethos, as they navigate the tumultuous world of contemporary music, staying true to their roots and dedicated to their craft.

Title:
“Confluence of Echoes”
Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Em C G D
We’re stranded in the confluence of echoes,
Em C G D
Running in circles, chasing shadows.
Em C G D
Treading on the footprints of tomorrow,
Em C G D
Hoping to borrow some lighter sorrow.
Chorus:
C G D Em
Oh, we’re sailing on time’s narrow ledge,
C G D Em
Tossing pennies into the river’s edge.
C G D Em
Yet in this confluence of echoes,
C G D Em
We find the strength to defy all foes.
Verse 2:
Em C G D
Carving our future on the canvas of the night,
Em C G D
Painting a picture with shades of light.
Em C G D
Trapped in the labyrinth of our minds,
Em C G D
The confluence of echoes, forever binds.
(Repeat Chorus)
