Backstory:
Graceful Chapel was formed in the heart of Nashville in 2009, when its founding members – siblings Caroline and David Frost – decided to turn their mutual love for music into a reason for living. The two grew up in a household filled with diverse music, their father a renowned blues guitarist, and their mother a classical violinist. The siblings took the best elements from both worlds, harmonizing their musical preferences and skills to create a unique sound that would later define Graceful Chapel.
When they came together with childhood friends, drummer Mike Johnson and bassist Sally Bronson, the band was fully formed. Their shared history and close-knit bonds have been the fuel for their creativity. Graceful Chapel has since become a staple on the music scene, winning hearts with their honest lyrics, soulful melodies, and captivating live performances.

Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
G C D Em
Down by the riverside, under the sycamore tree
G C D Em
Playing our hearts out, free as can be
G C D Em
The sun is high and our spirits soaring
G C D Em
Down by the river, where love is pouring
(Chorus)
G C D Em
Riverside reverie, where dreams are born
G C D Em
In the heartland, amidst the corn
G C D Em
We strum our tunes under the moon
G C D Em
In our riverside reverie, we’ll be home soon
(Verse 2)
G C D Em
We’ve got the stars, we got the night
G C D Em
Our love for each other, burning bright
G C D Em
Under the sycamore, in the soft moonlit glow
G C D Em
Down by the river, letting life flow
(Chorus)
G C D Em
Riverside reverie, where we belong
G C D Em
With the river’s current, we sing our song
G C D Em
We strum our tunes under the moon
G C D Em
In our riverside reverie, we’ll be home soon
