Backstory:
Frequent Belief was formed in 2010 by college roommates Howard “Howie” Keith and Jimmy “Jimmie” Lantana. The two met at a creative writing course at the University of California, Berkeley and quickly found a common interest in music. After hours spent jamming to their favorite songs in the dorms, they decided to start their own band. They began writing songs, influenced by their life experiences and the world around them. To expand their sound, they recruited two more members – drummer, Charlie ‘Chaz’ Langley, and bassist, Samuel ‘Sammy’ Murphy. They started playing at local bars and quickly gained a faithful following with their unique sound and lyrics.
Genre:
Frequent Belief plays alt-indie rock, with deep lyrical content that often explores themes of spirituality, self-discovery, and personal evolution.

“One Step Closer”
Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1: (C – G – Am – F)
I’ve been walking on this road, it’s a long way home (C – G)
I can’t see the end, but I’m not alone (Am – F)
Got my fears, got my doubts, but I keep them in control, (C – G)
Every step I take is one step closer to my soul. (Am – F)
Chorus : (Am – G – F – C)
One step closer, I’m one step closer, (Am – G)
To finding out who I truly am. (F – C)
One step closer, I’m one step closer, (Am – G)
To understanding, to believing, to being a man. (F – C)
Verse 2: (C – G – Am – F)
I’ve seen the highs, tasted the lows, been through it all (C – G)
But through every storm, I’ve managed not to fall. (Am – F)
I’m finding my faith, in the journey, in the unknown, (C – G)
Every step I take is one step closer to being whole. (Am – F)

One step closer, I’m one step closer, (Am – G)
