Backstory:
Formed in 2006 in the heart of San Francisco, the three founding members of Natural Access, Jesse Malone (lead vocals, guitar), Kelly ‘O’ Sullivan (bass, vocals), and Tommy Hargrave (drums), sought to create music that echoed the vibrant spirit of the city while reflecting on the natural beauty that surrounded them. Each member brought a unique influence to the band, from Malone’s folk-inspired guitar melodies to O’Sullivan’s jazz-infused bass lines and Hargrave’s rock-steady drum beats. As a result, they were able to create a distinctive sound that resonated deeply with their audience. Living in a city that prides itself on its ecological consciousness, Natural Access used their music to not only entertain but to also raise awareness about the environment.

Title:
“Rhythm of the Rain”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
G C D
Underneath the sycamore tree,
G C D
We found love, wild and free.
Em D C
Listening to the rhythm of the rain,
Em D C
Feeling life’s joy and pain.

(Chorus)
G C D
Oh, the rhythm of the rain,
G C D
A melody we can’t explain.
G C D
It’s the song of Mother Earth,
Em D C
A tune that speaks of our worth.

(Verse 2)
G C D
Gazing at the starlit skies,
G C D
Your eyes hold no disguise.
Em D C
Caught in the rhythm of the rain,
Em D C
Two hearts that can’t be tamed.

(Chorus)
G C D
Oh, the rhythm of the rain,
G C D
A melody we can’t restrain.
G C D
It’s the anthem of the night,
Em D C
A song that feels so right.

(Outro)
G C D
With the rhythm of the rain,
G C D
We’ll dance away our pain.
Em D C
Underneath the sycamore tree,
Em D C
Is where we’re meant to be.

Testimonial:
“I’ve been a fan of Natural Access since their first gig at The Chapel in San Francisco. Their music is a perfect blend of everything I love: thoughtful lyrics, catchy melodies, and a message that resonates with my own love for nature. The song “Rhythm of the Rain” is my all-time favorite. It speaks to my soul, and I can’t help but sway every time I hear it. The band members are not only incredibly talented musicians, but also devoted environmentalists, which adds another level of respect for them. Natural Access is my favorite because their music connects me to the earth, to myself, and to the people around me.”
