Backstory:
Buoyant Drop, a band synonymous with experimentation and evolution, was formed in 2008 in the rainy streets of Seattle. The band members, Ed Coppersmith (vocals, guitar), Tommy Rivers (bass guitar), Johnny “Keys” Mason (keyboard), and Derek ‘ThunderBolt’ Taylor (drums) all brought their unique musical backgrounds to create a sound that was both familiar and refreshingly innovative. They started off playing in dimly lit bars and small college gigs, but their evocative soundscape quickly garnered a loyal following, leading them to larger venues and sold-out concerts.
Known for their raw energy and profound lyrics, Buoyant Drop has always strived to push the boundaries of their music. Their journey has been defined by countless hours spent in the recording studio, refining their compositions to achieve the perfect balance between their diverse influences. Despite the challenges, the band has always stood firm, united by their shared love for music and their unwavering commitment to their fans.

Title:
“Drowning in the Sky”
Full song lyrics:
Verse 1: [Em, G, D, A]
(Em)Look up to the sky, (G) beyond those grey clouds,
(D) In the silence, the (A) universe is so loud.
(Em)Promise me tonight, (G) that we won’t back down,
(D)We’ll keep fighting, (A) until we’re safe and sound.
Chorus: [C, G, D, Em]
(C) We’re drowning in the sky, (G) lost in the crowd,
(D) Searching for a light, (Em) in the shadows of doubt.
(C) With every single try, (G) we scream and we shout,
(D) But we’re buoyant, (Em) we won’t let this drop, no we won’t back down.
Verse 2: [Em, G, D, A]
(Em)Stars may shatter, (G) dreams may fall,
(D) But the echoes of (A) our hope still call.
(Em)We’ll rise from the ashes, (G) stand tall,
(D)Against every storm, (A) we’ll conquer all.
Chorus: [C, G, D, Em]
(C) We’re drowning in the sky, (G) lost in the crowd,
(D) Searching for a light, (Em) in the shadows of doubt.
(C) With every single try, (G) we scream and we shout,
(D) But we’re buoyant, (Em) we won’t let this drop, no we won’t back down.
