Backstory:

Formed in a dusty basement on the worn-out side of Chicago, Sore Hotel comprises three childhood friends: lead singer and guitarist Matt ‘Dusty’ Nelson, bassist Sam ‘Thumper’ Thompson, and drummer Luke ‘Bones’ Bonham. The boys grew up in rough neighborhoods, facing hardships that most people only read about, but found solace in their shared love of music. Sore Hotel was born as a means of escape from their day jobs, a way to express their unspoken feelings, and as a beacon of hope for a brighter future.

Alt-Rock with a touch of Blues

Title:

“Patchwork Dreams”

Full Song Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Cmaj – G – Am – E
In the shadow of the city’s glow we were born,
Our hearts were beating like a thunderstorm,
We built our dreams out of a beggar’s scorn,
In a sore hotel, where our love was sworn.

[Verse 2]
Cmaj – G – Am – E
Dusty alleyways, and broken dreams,
Silver linings torn at the seams,
In the sore hotel, we found our means,
Patchwork dreams, amid poverty’s screams.

[Chorus]
F – C – G
Patchwork dreams, oh how they gleam,
Under the neon lights, a starry beam,
In the sore hotel, we found our theme,
Fighting the world, as an unbeaten team.
