Backstory:
Oval Breakfast is a band that hails from the quirky, eclectic city of Austin, Texas. The group was formed in 2012 by a group of friends who met at a local diner known for its oval-shaped breakfast special, hence the name. The four members, lead vocalist Aidan Miller, drummer Lesley Williams, bassist Clark Thompson, and guitarist Scott Preston, discovered they had a shared passion for music that was as unconventional as their favorite breakfast dish.

Their music journey began with impromptu jam sessions in their dorm rooms, which quickly transformed into regular gigs at local bars and clubs. Oval Breakfast’s unique sound, charismatic performances, and engaging lyrics soon caught the attention of a local record label, who swiftly signed them up. Ever since, the band has been gaining momentum and has built a loyal fanbase who appreciate their distinctive blend of sounds.

Full song lyrics:

Verse 1:
[C] Woke up this morning, [G] to the sound of your voice,
[Am] Laughter and coffee, in the kitchen, [F] no choice,
[C] Cracked the eggs, [G] on the griddle pan,
[Am] The smell of bacon, [F] reminds me of where we began.

Chorus:
[G] Sunrise Special, [Am] you and me,
[F] Sharing stories, over [C] eggs and coffee,
[G] Sunrise Special, [Am] it’s our time,
[F] In this city, love is [C] hard to find.

Verse 2:
[C] The morning light, [G] illuminates your face,
[Am] Your smile, my solace, [F] in this chaotic place,
[C] The sizzle and pop, [G] of our oval feast,
[Am] It’s these simple moments, [F] I cherish the most.

Chorus:
[G] Sunrise Special, [Am] our secret place,
[F] Where love and laughter, [C] intertwine in grace,
[G] Sunrise Special, [Am] in this city so grand,
[F] In the heart of Texas, [C] you make me understand.
