1. Backstory:

Idiotic Revenue was formed in the bustling streets of Brooklyn, NY, in 2010. The band’s original members, lead vocalist Jake Dawson, guitarists Nick Miller and Adam Levin, bassist Leo Thomas, and drummer Chris Burton, were childhood friends who shared a common love for music that challenged the norm. They would jam in their basements, garages, and even on rooftops, crafting their unique sound that set them apart from mainstream music. Despite their name, the band is anything but idiotic, with “revenue,” symbolizing the wealth of creativity they bring to their music. As their popularity skyrocketed, they remained rooted in their original goal – to create music that breaks away from the conventional and forces listeners to see the world from a different perspective.

4. Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse)
[G] Walking down the [C] empty roads,
[Em] Dreaming of the [D] stories untold,
[G] We found each other [C] in the midst of despair,
[Em] With our psychedelic [D] promises in the air.

(Chorus)
[C] Psychedelic [G] promises, never [Em] meant to [D] break,
[C] Lost in our [G] reality, for [Em] sanity’s [D] sake,
[C] Psychedelic [G] promises, just [Em] floating [D] astray,
[C] In our dreams [G], we’re gonna [Em] find our [D] way.

(Verse)
[G] The city lights [C] were our guiding stars,
[Em] As we played our [D] guitars in rundown bars,
[G] Chasing dreams [C] that were far and wide,
[Em] With our psychedelic [D] promises as our guide.

(Chorus)
[C] Psychedelic [G] promises, in [Em] whispers [D] and roars,
[C] Trapped in a [G] rhythm, that [Em] constantly [D] soars,
[C] Psychedelic [G] promises, [Em] never [D] sway,
[C] To the beat of [G] our hearts, we’ll [Em] find our [D] way.

5. Fan Testimonial:

“Idiotic Revenue, man, they’re like the soundtrack to my life,” says Franky J, the band’s favorite fan. A Brooklyn native himself, he has been following the band since their early days. “I was there, in their first dingy bar gig. Their music, it’s real, it’s raw, and it’s transformative. It’s like they put my thoughts and feelings into their songs. They’re my favorite because they’re not just a band to me, they’re a part of who I am. Their song ‘Psychedelic Promises’ speaks volumes about the struggle and beauty of life, and I wouldn’t be who I am today without their music.”
