Backstory:
Legal Gang was formed in the bustling city of New York in 2009. The band members, Calvin, Rhys, Terrence, and Benny, were lawyers in their early thirties who shared a common passion for music. Finding their corporate jobs increasingly monotonous, they decided to use their musical talents to provide an escape for the everyday working person, drawing inspiration from their own experiences. As time went by, they found the perfect balance between their legal professions and their love for music, hence the name ‘Legal Gang’.
Their journey wasn’t easy. There were times when they had to play at small gigs at late hours and then rush back to their corporate jobs the next morning. But their determination never faltered. Their music resonated with the crowd, and soon they gained a loyal fan base. Their music became a symbol of hope and resilience, proving that one can chase their dreams no matter what.
Genre:
Legal Gang specializes in Alternative Rock with a hint of Blues. They draw inspiration from classic rock bands and blues legends, with a modern spin of their own.
Title:
“Justice Jam”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Working nine to five, [Am] in a suit and tie,
[F] Lost in the paperwork, [G] under the city lights.
[C] Tired eyes, [Am] empty hearts,
[F] Chasing dreams, [G] torn apart.
(Chorus)
[C] They call us the Legal Gang, [F] playing the Justice Jam,
[G] We’re lawyers by day, [C] musicians by night,
[F] Singing for the dreamers, [G] under the city lights.
(Verse 2)
[C] Smoking in silence, [Am] lost in our thoughts,
[F] Dreams of freedom, [G] in courtrooms fought.
[C] Strumming the guitar, [Am] beating the drum,
[F] With every note, [G] we become one.
(Chorus)
[C] They call us the Legal Gang, [F] playing the Justice Jam,
[G] We’re lawyers by day, [C] musicians by night,
[F] Singing for the dreamers, [G] under the city lights.
