Backstory:

Leading Attempt is an eclectic group of four musicians who came together in 2015, in the thriving music scene of Austin, Texas. The band members, Leo (vocals and guitar), Andy (drums), Sam (bass), and Emily (keyboard and backing vocals), met in college, lending their differing musical backgrounds to create a unique sound that quickly gained traction in the local scene. They got their name from their shared ethos of continually striving to push their musical boundaries and to ‘lead the attempt’ to bring something fresh to the music industry.

Genre:

Indie Rock/Alternative

Title:

“Back to Start”

Full song Lyrics:

Verse 1:
(G, E minor, C, D)
In the silence, we’re dancing around,
In the aftermath, just echoes of sounds,
We’re lost in the moment, still waiting to be found,
Can we go back to start, where we were unbound?

Chorus:
(G, D, C)
Back to start, in our hearts,
Where love was art, where we could restart,
Back to start, under the stars,
Before we fell apart, before these scars,
Back to start, back to start.

Verse 2:
(G, E minor, C, D)
In the shadows, we’re searching for light,
In the chase of tomorrow, we lost our sight,
We’re stuck in the crossroads, no left or right,
Can we go back to start, back to the night?

Chorus:
(G, D, C)
Back to start, in our hearts,
Where love was art, where we could restart,
Back to start, under the stars,
Before we fell apart, before these scars,
Back to start, back to start.

Bridge:
(E minor, C, G, D)
Let’s trace our memories, let’s trace our dreams,
Let’s go back to the start, where we were still serene,
Back to start, back to start.

Chorus:
(G, D, C)
Back to start, in our hearts,
Where love was art, where we could restart,
Back to start, under the stars,
Before we fell apart, before these scars,
Back to start, back to start.

Outro:
(G, E minor, C, D)
Back to start, where we got our start,
In the melodies, in the beat of our hearts,
Back to start, back to start…

Fan Testimonial:

My name is Abby, and I’ve been a dedicated fan of Leading Attempt since their very first gig at a small bar in Austin. Their music is raw, authentic, and speaks to the soul. Every lyric feels like a personal conversation, and every rhythm feels like the heartbeat of life itself. Their song “Back to Start” is a spectacular testament to their craft, both lyrically and musically. They’re not just a band to me, they’re a lifeline, connecting me to the joys, the pains, and the complexities of life through their music.
