1. Backstory:
In the small coastal town of Astoria, Oregon, where the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean fuel inspiration, arose a band beyond ordinary dimensions. ‘Humongous Evening’ was formed during a quiet summer evening in 2010, when four high school friends decided to channel their shared passion for music into something tangible. They spent their evenings jamming in their backyard, concocting a unique sound that resonated with their feelings of being on the cusp of adulthood. Band members include lead vocalist and guitarist Rowan McCarthy, drummer Liam Scott, bass guitarist and vocalist Kira Taylor, and keyboardist Benjamin ‘Benji’ Davis.
They played local gigs, slowly gaining momentum and popularity within their small town. It wasn’t long before they were discovered by an indie label scout during one of their performances at Astoria’s annual music festival. Since then, Humongous Evening has been making waves in the indie music scene, captivating audiences with their raw energy and authentic sound.

4. Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
In this quiet town, where dreams are found,
We learned to play, to seize the day,
In the rhythm of the sea, we found our melody,
And in the hum of the evening, we found our feeling.
(Chorus)
In the echo of the ocean, we found emotion,
In the whispers of the wind, we found our rhythm,
Under a moon so bright, in the depths of night,
In the humongous evening, we found meaning.
(Verse 2)
With each passing tide, we learned to ride,
On notes so raw, they touch your core,
In the hush of the dusk, we found our musk,
And in the twinkle of the stars, we strummed our guitars.
(Bridge)
We are the sound of the sea, the melody of the breeze,
We are the heartbeat of the evening, the rhythm never ceasing,
In the humongous evening, we keep believing,
In the power of music, the magic never decreasing.
(Chorus)
In the echo of the ocean, we found emotion,
In the whispers of the wind, we found our rhythm,
Under a moon so bright, in the depths of night,
In the humongous evening, we found meaning.
(Outro)
In the humongous evening, we keep weaving,
Stories and songs, to which we all belong,
In the echo of the ocean, in the rhythm of the motion,
In the humongous evening, we keep believing.
