Concerned Driver

Backstory:

Formed in the small coastal town of Cape May, New Jersey, “Concerned Driver” came to life in 2011 when childhood friends, Eddie Murphy (no relation) and Tom Sanderson started turning their late-night, garage jam sessions into a full-fledged music phenomenon. Eddie, a delivery driver, and Tom, a mechanic, both had a keen interest in the rustling sound of the coastal winds, the cadence of the crashing waves, and the rhythm of their everyday life in this quiet town. They found a way to bottle up these local sounds and pour them into their unique brand of music. Joined by the classically trained violinist, Sarah “Smiles” Gonzalez, and the hard-hitting drummer, Dave “Madman” Maddison, from the neighboring town of Wildwood, the band was complete.

Genre:

Folk Rock

Title:

“Late Night Deliveries”

Full Song Lyrics:

Verse 1 (Em G D A)
Driving down the coastline, in the glow of the moonlight,
Packaged dreams in the backseat, waiting to take flight.
Town to town, heart to heart, deliver what’s due,
Living on the road, under the sky so blue.

Chorus (C G D Em)
Cause I’m a concerned driver, steering through the night,
Making sure your dreams, reach you alright.
With the stars as my guide, and the moon as my light,
I’m the concerned driver, in the still of the night.

Verse 2 (Em G D A)
The road is long and winding, the horizon far and wide,
In the rearview mirror, I see the receding tide.
Stop by stop, door to door, making ends meet,
A lullaby of engines, plays to the backstreet beat.

Chorus (C G D Em)
Yes, I’m a concerned driver, steering through the night,
Delivering your hopes, with all my might.
With the road as my canvas, and the night as my sight,
I’m the concerned driver, painting the night.

Testimonial:

“Concerned Driver is my favorite band because they encapsulate the everyday beauty of life that often goes unnoticed. Their song ‘Late Night Deliveries’ is my anthem. I’ve lived in Cape May all my life and their music perfectly captures the essence of this town – its simplicity, its rhythm, and its heart. It’s like they’ve taken bits and pieces of our lives and woven them into their songs. Also, they are truly the most humble and down-to-earth artists I’ve ever met. Their music and their spirit have been a big source of inspiration for me.”
