Backstory:
Personal Workshop, a band from the quiet suburbs of Seattle, was formed by four long-time friends who had been making music in their garages since high school. Their love and passion for music led them to embark on an unconventional music career after college. Instead of signing with a record label, they decided to distribute and sell their music independently. Their journey as a band has been filled with ups and downs, but their authentic sound and dedication to their craft have earned them a loyal fan base. Personal Workshop’s unique sound and approach to their music have set them apart from their contemporaries, turning them into one of the most beloved indie bands in the Pacific Northwest.

“Shattered Glass in the Attic”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
C Am F C
“Shattered glass in the attic,
G Am F C
Echoes of our youthful static,
C Am F C
Looking at the fragments, feels so dramatic,
G Am F C
Remembering the time when we were more ecstatic.”
(Chorus)
Dm G C Am
“Through the broken pieces of our dreams,
F C G Am
We found a place where the sunlight streams,
Dm G C Am
In this personal workshop of our themes,
F C G Am
Building music from our life’s extremes.”
(Verse 2)
C Am F C
“Brushing off the dust of yesteryears,
G Am F C
Wiping away all our silly fears,
C Am F C
In the attic, we found our cheers,
G Am F C
Music is the rhythm to our tears.”
(Chorus)
Dm G C Am
“Through the broken pieces of our dreams,
F C G Am
We found a place where the sunlight streams,
Dm G C Am
In this personal workshop of our themes,
F C G Am
Building music from our life’s extremes.”
