Backstory:

Firsthand Accommodation is a band that originated from a small town in Indiana in 2005. Their journey began as four high school friends – Jason (vocals, keyboards), Samuel (guitar), Andrew (drums), and Matthew (bass) discovered their shared love for music and decided to form a band. They started with music sessions in garages, then to local bars, and eventually, their talent caught the attention of a local record company. The band members, who were initially pursuing different careers, decided to take a leap of faith and dedicated themselves to music full time. Their journey wasn’t a smooth one; it was filled with struggle, but their commitment to their bond and shared love for music kept them going.

“Cloaked in Clouds”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am G C
Walking on a lonely road
D Am
Cloaked in clouds, secrets untold
G C
Chasing shadows, chasing dreams
D Am
Wading through life’s silent streams.

(Chorus)
F C
Underneath the starry night
G Am
Burning with a fierce light
F C
Cloaked in clouds we roam,
G Am
Making this world our own

(Verse 2)
Am G C
On this journey, we’ve grown,
D Am
Weathered storms and seeds we’ve sown
G C
We are Firsthand Accommodation,
D Am
The voice of our generation.

(Chorus)
F C
Underneath the starry night,
G Am
Burning with a fierce light
F C
Cloaked in clouds we roam,
G Am
Making this world our own.
