Backstory:
“All Presence” was formed in the bustling city of Melbourne, Australia in 2016, by a group of high school friends who shared a love for music that transcends boundaries. The band members – Tom Collins (vocals), Jake Anderson (lead guitar), Charlie Cooper (bass), and Alex Thompson (drums) – spent their adolescent years experimenting with various music styles, ultimately finding their unique voice in the midst of cacophony. They started by playing small gigs in local pubs, and before they knew it, their unique sound had garnered them a loyal following.
The band’s big break came when their self-produced EP caught the attention of a renowned record label. Since then, they’ve been touring across continents and their music has become synonymous with youthful rebellion and the quest for identity. Their compelling lyrics, combined with their electric performances, continue to captivate audiences worldwide.

Title:
“When Shadows Fade”
Full song lyrics:
[G] When shadows [D] fade, and [Em] stars become your [C] guide,
[G] In the silence [D] of the night, where [Em] your fears often [C] hide.
[G] There’s a part of you [D] that’s lost, another [Em] part that’s [C] found,
[G] In the echoes of [D] your heart, do you [Em] hear the [C] sound?
Chorus:
[G] We’re All Presence, [D] in the face of [Em] uncertainty,
[G] We’re the voice in the [D] winds of change, [Em] riding wild and [C] free.
[G] We’re the strength you [D] find within, when you’re [Em] feeling small,
[G] We’re All Presence, [D] standing tall, even when [Em] shadows [C] fall.
