Backstory:
Shady Supply was formed in the fall of 2005 in the basement of a converted warehouse in Brooklyn, New York. The four members—lead vocalist and guitarist, Jake Hayes, drummer, Andy Martinez, bassist, Sam ‘Shadows’ Rowley and keyboardist, Ashley ‘Flicker’ Jenkins—were all struggling musicians trying to make their mark in the city’s thriving music scene. Their shared love for eclectic sounds and unique melodies, united them into a band that would soon be known for its distinctive music and electrifying performances.
They spent their initial years performing in small gigs and underground clubs, gradually building a loyal fan base. Their breakout moment came in 2010, when their independent music video went viral on YouTube, leading to a record deal with a major label. Ten albums, multiple awards, and a dedicated worldwide fan base later, Shady Supply is known for their originality, raw energy, and the ability to speak to the heart through their music.

Title:
“Underneath the Neon Lights”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
C#m – A – E – B
Underneath the neon lights, we found our truth,
In the silence of the night, we craved our youth.
Between the hushed whispers and the city’s plight,
We danced away in shadows, out of sight.
(Chorus)
E – B – C#m – A
Oh, underneath the neon lights, we lost and found,
In the echoing alleyways, our battleground.
In the whispers of the wind and the moon’s soft light,
We found our freedom, underneath the neon lights.
(Verse 2)
C#m – A – E – B
Beneath the concrete jungle, in the heart of the abyss,
In the echoes of the subway, we shared our first kiss.
In the city that never sleeps, we learned to dream,
Underneath the neon lights, we found our theme.
(Chorus)
E – B – C#m – A
Oh, underneath the neon lights, we sang our song,
In the rhythm of the city, we found where we belong.
In the whispers of the wind and the moon’s soft light,
We found our freedom, underneath the neon lights.
