The group was formed by five college friends – Rob and Katey on guitars, Jim on bass, Lisa on keyboards, and Sam on drums – who shared a love of music and a burning desire to create something unique and novel. They started playing in local pubs, coffee shops, and small venues around the city, quickly earning a reputation for innovative compositions and powerful live performances. Drawing on a vast range of influences, from classic rock to progressive jazz, Unwieldy Duration crafted a sound that was wholly their own, catching the attention of both fans and critics.

“Whispers of the Cosmos”

Full song lyrics:

Verse:
Am Em G D
Lost in a sea of infinite stars,
Am Em G D
Drifting on a melody, no bounds, no bars.
Am Em G D
We’re echoes of light in a cosmic dance,
Am Em G D
Shooting across the galaxy, given a chance.

Chorus:
C G D Em
Oh, can you hear the whispers of the cosmos?
C G D Em
Telling tales of love and loss, written in stardust.
C G D Em
In the silence of the night, listen with your heart,
C G D Em
To the whispers of the cosmos, we’re only a part.

Verse:
Am Em G D
Through the vastness, across the divide,
Am Em G D
We’re chasing constellations, on the cosmic tide.
Am Em G D
In the grandeur of the universe, we find our place,
Am Em G D
Lost in the wonder, the beauty, the space.

(Repeat Chorus)
