about

This was written one hour before one of our first gigs and is the first Mclowrus original about our rehearsal room.

lyrics

There is a sacred place where the music comes alive
The sounds echo and energize and sweet vibrations tantalise
I dream about this place and the souls that it's revealed
The music here will never die and the smell will never yield
With white walls and black kit, there's no place quite like it
The heating here it never works, but still I quite like it
Grey cabinet master-lock, no-one knows what lies within
It sits beside the bin and holds the secret to our sins.

Welcome to 440, it's room that lets us know that we are still alive
440 is where we go, music must be made so that we are not alone
The purity of its four walls, the honesty of it's pit falls can make you see

The people passing by this place they do not understand
They've never felt it's warm embrace or music hold their hand
It's filled with three black music stands a Mapex Pro M kit
A Peavy PA system and some broken mic stand bits
The harder that you try the more the room will give you back
You get the strangest feeling that the room can give a shit
Sometimes in the room you may feel a little sick,
But not enough to quit, if the music is legit!

Mclowrus Perth and Kinross, UK

We formed in college around September 2011 and started writing and gigging in Perth College to build up our profile with a view to getting our own gigs, which happened a few months later when we began gigging regularly in Dunkeld and Birnam, Perth and Aviemore; where we were asked to play at a Battle of the Bands fundraiser which we won the chance to play at 2013 MV Festival. ... more
