Backstory:
Whole Cycle was born in a small town in Ohio, four friends – Mike, Nate, Sam, and Dave – sharing their love for music and the ability to create something unique and powerful. They met in high school, playing at local gigs and slowly earning their place in the hearts of the locals who awaited their performances with much anticipation. The band’s journey was not a smooth one; they juggled day jobs and college while nurturing their dream of making it big in the music industry. It was their pure passion for music and the bond they shared which held them together, making them a force to be reckoned with.
Throughout their journey, Whole Cycle has always emphasized the power of change and growth, both as individuals and as musicians. Their name also reflects this, symbolizing the cycle of life, the ups and downs, and how every end is just a new beginning. Their story is a testament to their belief in their music, their dedication to their craft, and their unwavering resilience.
Genre:
Whole Cycle’s music primarily falls under the genre of Alternative Rock, with a pinch of Indie Pop, which gives their music an edge of rawness while still maintaining an infectious catchiness.
Title:
“Riding the Waves”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Look into the distance, [D] where the road meets the sky,
[Em] Where dreams take flight, [C] and the limits are high.
[G] We’ve been through the storm, [D] we’ve danced in the rain,
[Em] We’ve felt the joy, [C] and we’ve shared the pain.
(Chorus)
[G] We’re riding the waves, [D] we’re embracing the change,
[Em] We’ve seen the whole cycle, [C] and we wouldn’t exchange.
[G] From dawn till dusk, [D] from dusk till dawn,
[Em] The cycle goes on, [C] but the music plays on.
(Verse 2)
[G] We’ve sung in the darkness, [D] we’ve laughed in the light,
[Em] We’ve held on tight, [C] with all our might.
[G] We’ve walked on the edge, [D] we’ve jumped off the cliff,
[Em] We’ve lived every moment, [C] every sigh, and every sniff.
(Chorus)
[G] We’re riding the waves, [D] we’re embracing the change,
[Em] We’ve seen the whole cycle, [C] and we wouldn’t exchange.
[G] From dawn till dusk, [D] from dusk till dawn,
[Em] The cycle goes on, [C] but the music plays on.
