Backstory:
General Travel is a band formed in 2005, in Seattle, Washington. The four-piece ensemble was born out of the shared passion of four childhood friends – Luke, Ben, Jackson, and Alex – who sought to create music that encapsulated their love for wanderlust and their adventurous spirit. After years of playing in their garages and local gigs, the band was discovered by an indie record label executive during a live performance at a small music festival. They have since been charming audiences around the world with their unique sound and energetic performances.

Song Lyrics:
Verse: (Cmaj7, G, Em)
Cmaj7 G Em
On this road, we make our own,
Cmaj7 G Em
Where the wind whispers tales unknown.
Cmaj7 G Em
Tales of love, tales of pain,
Cmaj7 G Em
On these roads unclaimed.

Chorus: (Fmaj7, G, Am)
Fmaj7 G Am
We travel far, we travel wide,
Fmaj7 G Am
To find our place, our hearts inside,
Fmaj7 G Am
Look for the sun, run from the rain,
Fmaj7 G Am
On these roads unclaimed.

Verse: (Dm, G, C)
Dm G C
Underneath the starry night,
Dm G C
We find solace, we find light.
Dm G C
Sharing stories, sharing names,
Dm G C
On these roads unclaimed.

Chorus: (Fmaj7, G, Am)
Fmaj7 G Am
We travel far, we travel wide,
Fmaj7 G Am
To know ourselves, to not hide,
Fmaj7 G Am
We play the game, we stake our claim,
Fmaj7 G Am
On these roads unclaimed.
