Backstory:
Big-Hearted Poetry was born out of a chance meeting at a small town poetry reading in the heart of Austin, Texas. The core trio, comprised of lead vocalist and guitarist Jake ‘Howlin’ Hart, drummer Victoria ‘Thunder’ Smith, and bassist, Jeff ‘Bassline’ Turner found a unique symmetry in their shared love for music and poetry. They decided to combine their passions, creating a seamless blend of thought-provoking lyrics with an evocative melody.
The band’s journey from playing at local bars to sold-out concert halls is a testament to their hard work and undying determination. They’ve stayed true to their roots, incorporating poetic lyrics and a deep emotional resonance in their songs. Their success is attributed not just to their musical talent, but also their ability to connect with fans on a visceral level.

“Rhythms of the Heart”
Full song lyrics:
[Verse]
C Am
Underneath the moonlight, where the shadows start,
Em G
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
C Am
Through the silent whispers, in the pitch-black dark,
Em G
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
[Chorus]
F C G
Can you feel it beating? Can you feel it start?
Am Em F
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
F C G
In every fleeting moment, in every work of art,
Am Em F
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
[Verse]
C Am
Through the trials and the triumphs, through the bitter and the tart,
Em G
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
C Am
In every soul encounter, in every torn-apart,
Em G
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
[Chorus]
F C G
Can you hear it calling? Can you bear that part?
Am Em F
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
F C G
In every echo’s falling, in every end and start,
Am Em F
We’re dancing to the rhythms of the heart.
