Backstory:
Formed in the outskirts of Seattle in 2013, ‘Guilty Opportunity’ is composed of four childhood friends: frontman Eli Harrison, guitar prodigy Dean Peterson, bassist Nick Anderson, and drummer Vince Crosby. They were bonded by their shared love for music, and over the course of their high school years, they steadily moved from jamming in their garages to playing at local events. Their big break came in 2015 when they won a statewide Battle of the Bands contest, catching the attention of a prominent record label scout who was in the audience. From then on, Guilty Opportunity’s journey towards stardom has been nothing short of meteoric.
Genre:
Guilty Opportunity is a Pop Punk band, drawing inspiration from bands like Green Day and Blink-182. Their music is characteristically energetic and youthful, with catchy hooks and melodic riffs that resonate with a broad audience.
Title:
Their hit song is titled “Runaway Chronicles”.
Song Lyrics:
(Verse)
Em D G C
On this road, we’re born to roam,
Em D G C
Chasing dreams, far from home.
Em D G C
Through the lights and city haze,
Em D G C
In our hearts, the music plays.
(Chorus)
Em D G C
Runaway, on this endless journey,
Em D G C
With the night as our guide and stars as our diary.
Em D G C
Oh, the Chronicles we write,
Em D G C
In this world of color and black and white.
(Verse)
Em D G C
Under the bridge, or by the bay,
Em D G C
Our guitars, have so much to say.
Em D G C
With every beat and strum,
Em D G C
We know, our time has come.
(Chorus)
Em D G C
Runaway, let the music carry us,
Em D G C
To a place, where we’re free and victorious.
Em D G C
Oh, the Chronicles we write,
Em D G C
In the glow of the neon light.
