Backstory:
Windy Panic was formed in the small coastal town of Northbridge, Maine, in the late spring of 2012. The five-piece band originally started as a trio, with founding members Peter “Pete” Daniels on lead vocals, Samantha “Sam” Richards on drums, and George “Geo” Miller on guitar. Regular jam sessions in Pete’s garage gradually evolved into more structured songwriting sessions, leading to the creation of a unique and captivating sound. In 2014, they added two more members to their lineup: keyboardist Mike “Keys” Hamilton and bassist Emily “Bass” Davis. Together, they took their music from the garage to local bars and venues, gaining a devoted fan base in the process.

Title:
“Catch the Breeze”
Full Song Lyrics:
[Verse 1: C G Am F]
(C) I saw her standing there, (G) on the edge of the sea,
(Am) Wind in her hair, just (F) as free as she could be.
(C) She looked my way, with (G) those eyes so blue,
(Am) And for a moment, I (F) knew what I had to do.
[Chorus: G Am F C]
(G) Catch the breeze, (Am) catch her heart,
(F) And I knew it, yes (C) I knew it from the start.
(G) With the wind in our hair, (Am) under the setting sun,
(F) We would dance and laugh, as (C) two became one.
[Verse 2: C G Am F]
(C) We spent the summer days, (G) lost in a dream,
(Am) Love was our guide, and (F) things were just as they seemed.
(C) As the season passed, our (G) love still stayed true,
(Am) Through the autumn leaves, and the (F) winter’s morning dew.
[Chorus: G Am F C]
(G) Catch the breeze, (Am) catch her heart,
(F) And I knew it, yes (C) I knew it from the start.
(G) With the wind in our hair, (Am) under the setting sun,
(F) We would dance and laugh, as (C) two became one.
[Outro: C G Am F]
(C) So here’s to the girl, (G) who caught the breeze,
(Am) And the love that we share, (F) as potent as the seas.
