The members of Adelaide, Australia’s Atlas Genius do things a little differently….They set about building a studio where they could write and record music for their newly formed band three years before they even played their first live show as Atlas Genius. “We really got down and dirty with dry walling and literally laying the floorboards, and at the same time we were taking a couple of days a week to focus on writing songs,” recalls Keith Jeffery, Atlas Genius’s vocalist/guitarist. “We had a lot of song ideas and it was important to us to have our own studio where we could experiment and hone in on our sound,” adds brother and drummer, Michael Jeffery. Their dream studio, which took two years to build, was designed and outfitted by the brothers with the help of their father (who comes from a music and engineering background). Once the studio was complete, the first song that Atlas Genius finished was a song called “Trojans,” which they wrote, recorded and produced in collaboration with their friend, keyboardist Darren Sell. After many weeks tweaking the song, Michael insisted that the song was ready to be heard outside of the studio walls.
Atlas Genius – If So (Official)
Atlas Genius – If So Lyrics:
Everybody’s taking what they can but they can’t decide
And they do what they want to cause any kind of feeling’s alright
And don’t be talking maybe, your mama’s flying high as a kite
You’re just like the next one cause we’ll be walking lonely tonight
Lonely tonight
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
Everybody’s faking like they can, it makes it alright
Tell me what you want to cause I don’t know the wrong from the right
Just don’t be talking maybe your mama’s still high as a kite
And I’m just like the next one cause we’ll be walking lonely tonight
Lonely tonight
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming
If so, If so, We know we’ll be coming…
