Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Click of the switch
Red light glow
Dust on the case
But I still know
First chord hits
And my heart goes wild
Like a jukebox dream from a restless child
[Chorus]
We’re doin’ that brass & shadows boogie (oh yeah)
Chrome on the fretboard
Gold in the air
Keys spin sweet
Horns shout back to me
That brass & shadows boogie
I’m right there
[Verse 2]
Smoke in the rafters
Floorboards shake
Lip on the bottle
Hands all ache
You bend that note
I lean right in
Every little slide feels like a sin
[Chorus]
We’re doin’ that brass & shadows boogie (come on)
Chrome on the fretboard
Gold in the air
Keys spin sweet
Horns shout back to me
That brass & shadows boogie
I’m right there
[Bridge]
Night gets loud
Then soft again
You hold the chord
Let it hang
One last run
Let the echoes ring
Crowd sings along to that ringing string
[Chorus]
We’re doin’ that brass & shadows boogie
Chrome on the fretboard
Gold in the air
Keys spin sweet
Horns shout back to me
That brass & shadows boogie
I’m right there
That brass & shadows boogie
Everywhere
Click of the switch
Red light glow
Dust on the case
But I still know
First chord hits
And my heart goes wild
Like a jukebox dream from a restless child
[Chorus]
We’re doin’ that brass & shadows boogie (oh yeah)
Chrome on the fretboard
Gold in the air
Keys spin sweet
Horns shout back to me
That brass & shadows boogie
I’m right there
[Verse 2]
Smoke in the rafters
Floorboards shake
Lip on the bottle
Hands all ache
You bend that note
I lean right in
Every little slide feels like a sin
[Chorus]
We’re doin’ that brass & shadows boogie (come on)
Chrome on the fretboard
Gold in the air
Keys spin sweet
Horns shout back to me
That brass & shadows boogie
I’m right there
[Bridge]
Night gets loud
Then soft again
You hold the chord
Let it hang
One last run
Let the echoes ring
Crowd sings along to that ringing string
[Chorus]
We’re doin’ that brass & shadows boogie
Chrome on the fretboard
Gold in the air
Keys spin sweet
Horns shout back to me
That brass & shadows boogie
I’m right there
That brass & shadows boogie
Everywhere
Style of Music
Vintage rock’n’roll shuffle with twangy lead guitar, male vocals, and punchy brass hits answering each riff. Hammond organ swirls under the verses, then swells to the front on the hook. Tight live drums and walking bass keep it snappy; short organ and guitar fills between vocal phrases for a playful, throwback energy.
