Backstory:
Flimsy Pest was founded in 2011 by four college dropouts in the bustling city of San Francisco. The band’s members, namely Brad (vocals), Chuck (guitar), Steve (drums), and Jason (bass), met in a cocktail bar and discovered their mutual interest in music. The group set out to create their own distinct brand of music, which revolved around their shared experiences of love, loss, and the struggles of life.
The group began practicing and performing in small local venues, where they slowly built a dedicated fan base due to their unique sound and lyrical honesty. Their meteoric rise was marked by ups and downs, from playing for packed venues to times when they could barely afford to eat. However, their resilience and dedication to their craft eventually led to their breakthrough and they’ve since produced five studio albums and have toured the world.

Title:
“Drifter’s Hymn”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verses)
G C Em D
Drifting on this lonesome road, a tale untold
G C Em D
Caught in the webs of time, a broken rhyme
G C Em D
Seeking for a pause, amidst life’s applause
G C Em D
Hunting for a song, that carries me along
(Chorus)
G C Em D
Sing to me, Drifter’s Hymn
G C Em D
Guide me through the storm, let the light within
G C Em D
In the echoes of the night, let the truth begin
G C Em D
Sing to me, Drifter’s Hymn
