Backstory:
Formal Profile is a four-piece ensemble that originated in the heart of Boston and has been making waves in the indie music scene ever since. The band was formed in 2012 when four university friends decided to combine their different musical backgrounds into one cohesive sound. The band members include lead vocalist and guitarist, Jack Thompson, drummer, Cody Harris, bassist, Dylan Michaels, and pianist, Richard Wells.

Title: “Shadows in the Sunlight”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse)
Am Em
Facing the morning, with eyes wide open,
G D
Chasing the daylight, with words unspoken.
Am Em
Shadows in the sunlight, we’re never undone,
G D
Finding our path, under the midday sun.
(Chorus)
Am Em
Running through the mazes, of our own design,
G D
In the shadows and the sunlight, we’ll intertwine.
Am Em
With every beat of our hearts, every rise and fall,
G D
In the shadows and the sunlight, we’ve seen it all.
(Verse)
Am Em
Treading lightly, on this hallowed ground,
G D
Whispering secrets, in sounds profound.
Am Em
Shadows in the sunlight, we dance and sway,
G D
Finding our rhythm, as the music starts to play.
(Chorus)
Am Em
In the ebb and flow of life, we find our rhyme,
G D
In the shadows and the sunlight, lost in time.
Am Em
Between the lines of reality, and dreams unwind,
G D
In the shadows and the sunlight, we’re entwined.
