Rough Apartment
The story
Formed in the heart of New York City's bustling East Village in 2010, Rough Apartment got its name from the dilapidated loft where the founding members resided and first started jamming together. Band members, Jake Reynolds (lead vocals and guitar), Max Riley (bass guitar and backing vocals), Liam Turner (drums) and Emily Smith (keyboard and vocals), bonded over their mutual love for music and their shared struggle of trying to make it in the big city. Their edgy, raw sound, together with their raw, heartfelt lyrics, quickly garnered attention from the local music community, helping them to establish a loyal fan base.

Verse 1 C G Am E In this city of broken dreams, C G Am E Where nothing's ever what it seems, C G Am E We found a home in each other's arms, C G Am E Amidst the chaos, amidst the alarms. Chorus F C G Am Broken chains, we're breaking free, F C G Am From this rough apartment, you and me. F C G Am We'll make our way, just wait and see, F C G Am Broken chains, we choose to be. Verse 2 C G Am E In this city of lights and sounds, C G Am E Where love is lost and then it's found, C G Am E We found a rhythm, we found a beat, C G Am E In this rough apartment, on this street. Chorus F C G Am Broken chains, we're breaking free, F C G Am From this rough apartment, you and me. F C G Am We'll make our way, just wait and see, F C G Am Broken chains, we choose to be.
Biggest fan
Fan's name is Sarah Matthews, and here's her testimonial - "I've been a fan of Rough Apartment since their first gig at the local bar in East Village. Their music speaks to the soul and gives voice to the gritty, raw essence of city life that we're all too familiar with. It's like they've taken our shared struggles and emotions and turned them into something beautiful. Their song 'Broken Chains' particularly hits home; it's like an anthem for all of us trying to break free from our circumstances. Rough Apartment isn't just my favorite band because of their incredible talent and unique sound, but because they've created music that I, and so many others, can truly relate to."
