Backstory:
Showy Geese is a dynamic trio that found its roots during a chance meeting at the University of Colorado in Boulder. The members, lead singer and guitarist Jack Collins, bassist Clark Watson, and drummer Lily Stone, were each majoring in different disciplines, but their shared love for music led them to create one of the most iconic bands of the 21st century. The name ‘Showy Geese’ was inspired by a flock of geese that frequented the park where the trio first began to jam, creating a vibrant symphony of sound that complemented their own.

Alt-Rock with a hint of Blues

“Feathered Flight”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Woke up this morning, [D] under the blue sky,
[Em] Strumming my guitar, [C] watching the world pass by.
[G] Saw a group of geese, [D] flying overhead,
[Em] Free as the wind, [C] on the horizon they tread.
(Chorus)
[G] Feathered Flight, [D] take me high,
[Em] Above the clouds, [C] where the world lies.
[G] Feathered Flight, [D] oh, what a sight,
[Em] To soar away, [C] into the warm sunlight.
(Verse 2)
[G] Found my rhythm, [D] in their syncopated beat,
[Em] Strumming my heartstrings, [C] in the summer heat.
[G] Chasing dreams, [D] just like those geese,
[Em] We’re Showy Geese, [C] playing on nature’s lease.
(Chorus)
[G] Feathered Flight, [D] take me high,
[Em] Above the clouds, [C] where the world lies.
[G] Feathered Flight, [D] oh, what a sight,
[Em] To soar away, [C] into the warm sunlight.
