about

Denver-based collective Mega Gem maintains the philosophy of "the more, the merrier." because oftentimes the band's stage is ... more filled with as many musicians and vocalists as possible. The band's live shows can include up to 20 musicians, all bolstering the group's happy-go-lucky chamber pop. Always managing to charm audiences with its horn-heavy sound that ventures both into pop and folk territory. less

Track Name: Puddles (demo)
Puddles

All the roads you rode upon
Will Rupture in the sun
Enough begins to take it's toll
Then sounds before your done
Down down down the rain comes
Crash colossal sound
B
Collections of our common fears
now puddles on the ground
Around you
Surround you

I am not the giver, I am the river
I am the one that you would die for
I am not the great green ghost
I am the shining emerald coast
Around you
Surround you


We were the ones
We grew old in your sleep
We grew up with the sun
Cause you keep us real
keep us feeling something at all
I was a ghost because
You wouldn't notice
But somewhere below the
Ground keeps me from floating
Once
We were all the same
Then you
You flew away from me
Track Name: Onions (demo)
She said thanks for being alive
With me right now
And we scream loud enough to convince even our selves
In the impossible embrace
Of moments like these
We find things to believe in
Like these sidewalk cracks that lead us
Back to the sea

So I fall asleep in the arms
of a stranger again
Brave like the city we are held
by our own desires
As a thousand nights of rain
Go by almost unnoticed

Like the onions that make you cry
Or the dreams where you could fly
Your voice cracks...
Cracks to reach the note

There's no poem that can lift you
Where you cant already climb
No book to fill you in on the details
of your own life
Collect moments in a jar
We sleep with grand ambitions
If everything could be held
We would fill our arms with nonsense
Track Name: Creepy Fingers (demo)
So I wonder what affect
I might have on children
In their sad and bitter lives
With what words we greet each other gladly
Remind the petals not to drop

We grow crooked
Towards the only light we can find
Friendly pair of unknown hands
The TV screams it's not our fault
We're lonely
Help us find where we belong


I'm not ready to come home yet
I'm not ready to be all alone
In that great big city
We search for the lights that will guild us
But their not there at all
If we can forget our fear of the cold
We might make it
Where the stars can still shine

But oh your eyes
They don't remind me
Of other places i've been to
Oh my surprise
its not that useful
To find what we're made of

Some how I lose what I haven't found yet
Give for granted
Do not take
Track Name: Plans for the future (demo)
If I were humble or if I were brave
The truth wouldn't be so hard to explain
I don't remember and I don't complain
But I don't wanna see you roll your eyes

As Light as a feather
At the edge of the wind
She slips and sinks slightly
Then starts to swim
I am still waiting and I am still sick
But I would like to smile
When no one is looking
Looking the books have been cooking
Down in the ground
Where the words were there waiting

They'd sing
Oh please take us away from here

The windows were wide
Where the wind wanted in
But somewhere outside a new wall begins
Something real big or something real small
The roses were red and I counted them all

Ride upon ride upon the dirtiest roads
Dirty our eyes and dirty our clothes
Dirty our minds with your luscious
Failure, failure so gracious with grandeur
Dare ya dare ya I double dog dare ya!

Oh please take me away from here
