Backstory:

Founded in a small, quirky college town in Vermont, Probable Employer came to life when four friends found themselves out of work, disillusioned with the corporate world, and desperate for an outlet to express their inner turmoil. In a tiny, unheated garage, they began to merge their diverse backgrounds in jazz, punk, folk, and R&B into a sound that defied categorization. After spending countless hours honing their skills, they finally hit the local music scene. Their songs, often filled with biting satire about the working world, quickly resonated with audiences, making them a standout act in a town known for its vibrant musical culture.

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[G] I sit at this [C] desk, eight hours a [G] day
[D] Typing my life and my dreams [G] away
[G] The walls are so [C] grey, my boss is a [G] drone
[D] I wish I could just rock, and [G] leave this all alone

(Chorus)
[G] Got the desk job [C] blues, I’m feeling so [G] confined
[D] I want to break free, leave this old grind [G] behind
[G] Play my guitar [C], feel the rhythm’s [G] pull
[D] Music’s my probable employer, it’s [G] undeniable

(Verse 2)
[G] The clock ticks [C] so slow, as I watch the [G] time
[D] My heart beats in melody and [G] rhymes
[G] I need to escape, [C] need to be set [G] free
[D] My probable employer, come [G] rescue me

(Chorus)
[G] Got the desk job [C] blues, I’m in a deep [G] rut
[D] I want to sing loud, from this corporate [G] cut
[G] Strum my six strings, [C] under the moon’s [G] pull
[D] Music’s my probable employer, it’s [G] beautiful

“Probable Employer isn’t just my favorite band, it’s my lifeline. I first heard their song ‘Desk Job Blues’ during a particularly dismal day at my office job, and it was like they had reached into my soul and put my deepest feelings into words. Their music isn’t just fantastic, it’s also deeply comforting, knowing that I’m not alone in how I feel about the rat race. They remind me that there’s more to life than the 9-5 grind and inspire me to pursue my passions. For that, I’ll always be a fan.”
