Backstory:
Well-Groomed Potato came to life in the lively city of Portland, Oregon in 2016. The band was formed by four childhood friends – Johnny on the lead vocals, Alex on the drums, Neil on the lead guitar, and Louis on the bass. The guys spent their teenage years listening to a variety of music, ranging from punk rock to classic rock, and spent countless hours in their garages trying to emulate their favorite acts. After years of practice, they decided to combine their influences and talents to create their own unique sound.
Well-Groomed Potato gained popularity after performing at local bars and community events. The band’s energetic live performances and unique approach to songwriting quickly caught the attention of music enthusiasts around the city. Their breakthrough occurred when their first self-titled indie rock EP, which was self-produced and self-released, was discovered by a local radio DJ who started playing their music on the air. The band has since signed with an indie label and is currently touring nationwide.

Title:
“Spiral Staircase”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Walking down a spiral staircase, [D] lost in my thoughts,
[Em] Searching for an answer, [C] something I’ve lost.
[G] A melody, a memory, a [D] moment in time,
[Em] I slipped and I fell, but [C] I’ll be just fine.
(Chorus)
[D] Up and down, round and round, [G] life’s a spiral staircase,
[Em] Lose your footing, lose yourself, [C] find another place.
[D] Jump the steps, skip the rest, [G] time is there to waste,
[Em] Walk the spiral staircase, [C] at your own pace.
(Verse 2)
[G] Found myself a riddle, [D] in the curve of your smile,
[Em] A paradox, a puzzle, [C] worth my while.
[G] You’re an echo, a whisper, a [D] secret to find,
[Em] Down this spiral staircase, [C] I leave behind.
(Chorus)
[D] Up and down, round and round, [G] life’s a spiral staircase,
[Em] Lose your footing, lose yourself, [C] find another space.
[D] Jump the steps, skip the rest, [G] time is there to waste,
[Em] Walk the spiral staircase, [C] at your own pace.
