Backstory:
Delicious Packet was formed in the small college town of Athens, Ohio in 2008 when four culinary students decided to swap their spatulas for instruments. The band members – John “Gravy” Grahams (lead vocals), Pete “Patty” Patterson (guitar), Mike “Meatloaf” Malone (bass), and Steve “Sauce” Serrano (drums) – found a common bond in their love for both food and music. The band started out by playing at local cookouts and parties, often serving up their self-cooked meals alongside a side of their unique sound. Over time, their popularity grew and they began performing at larger venues, amassing a loyal fanbase who couldn’t resist their blend of foot-tapping music and delicious food references.
Genre:
Delicious Packet is best known for their quirky, upbeat blend of pop-rock, sprinkled with a dash of funk.

“Cheeseburger Serenade”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Late night, [D] grill’s alight, [Em] cooking under the [C] moonlight,
[G] Patty sizzles, [D] cheese melts, [Em] this is how my [C] heart felt.
(Chorus)
[Am] Gimme that cheeseburger [D] serenade,
[G] Let’s enjoy this meal we’ve [C] made.
[Am] With a side of fries and a [D] shake so thick,
[G] Love’s like a delicious [C] burger, quick to [D] pick.
(Verse 2)
[G] Buns toasted, [D] feelings boasted,
[Em] With every bite, it’s [C] you I’ve toasted.
[G] Lettuce crisp, [D] tomatoes slice,
[Em] Our love’s the secret [C] spice.
(Chorus)
[Am] Gimme that cheeseburger [D] serenade,
[G] Let’s relish this moment, [C] before it starts to fade.
[Am] Ketchup sweet, mustard’s [D] tang,
[G] Together we’re a flavor [C] that can’t be [D] manged.
(Outro)
[G] So here’s to the [D] cheeseburger serenade,
[Em] A melody of flavor, [C] a symphony homemade.
[G] With every beat and [D] every strum,
[Em] It’s a recipe of love, [C] yum!
