Backstory:
Starting in the modest town of Stirling, Scotland, Cylindrical Version was born out of an unanticipated jam session in a grungy garage. The band members, childhood friends, each brought their unique backgrounds and love for music to the table, forming a synergy that was undeniable. The group consists of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Billy MacTavish, lead guitarist James “Jimmy” Lindsay, bassist Sean MacDonald, and drummer Andrew “Drew” Campbell. Inspired by their shared love for music icons like David Bowie, The Beatles, and Nirvana, they decided to push their boundaries and create a sound that was uniquely their own.

Title:
“Beneath the Aurora”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
C G Am Em
Beneath the aurora, where shadows play,
F C G
We danced with the echoes of yesterday.
C G Am Em
Stars like whispers, in silent array,
F C G
Hold the secrets we dare not say.

(Chorus)
F C G Am
Beneath the aurora, we’re lost in time,
Em F C G
In the rhythm of the universe, in its endless rhyme.
F C G Am
With every heartbeat, with every sigh,
Em F C G
We’re caught in the beauty of the night sky.

(Verse 2)
C G Am Em
Beneath the aurora, where dreams take flight,
F C G
We find solace in the velvet night.
C G Am Em
In the silence, we hear the song,
F C G
Of the cosmos, where we belong.

(Chorus)
F C G Am
Beneath the aurora, we’re lost in space,
Em F C G
In the rhythm of the stars, in their gentle grace.
F C G Am
With every heartbeat, with every sigh,
Em F C G
We’re bathed in the wonder of the night sky.
