Fall in Love Every Day - Rafe - Original Song
Fall in Love Every Day G C5 Her soft brown hair Her Golden eyes I fall in love, She passes by She passes by We're trapped within The shields we make What's strangers love We dare to take We dare to take D C G Wish that I knew what to say I fall in love every day C G D The world is a path, Everyone passes by If I could I would stop Every girl and say hi What is it that you're hoping To do with your life Or tonight Rings on her face And wildly dressed A pink Tattoo Across her chest Across her chest So many types Some kinda fright To find the one That's' kinda right That's kinda right Here's an interview my friend Adam did with me a little while ago: Rafe: I hail from Toronto Ontario. I play a lot of shows and hopefully I will pursue music over the next period of time. Adam: Who are some of your biggest influences? Rafe: I have a lot of influences. I was always very into the old school guys like The Doors, Neil Young and Dylan were my favourites. Lately though, I've been really interested in some of the new guys. I love Panic! At the disco, (or panic at the disco as they recently changed their name) fall out boy, Rocket Summer, Something Corporate, Mute Math, Regina Spektor is one of my favourites. I found this other girl on her myspace, Jenny Owens Young who I'm really into. I love Tragically Hip but I wouldn't say I sound anything like them. Adam: Who would you say you sound like? Rafe: Well, I tell people, stylistically I sound like a mix between Green Day and Billy Joel. Obviously that's not really true, it just gets people interested. I get "Something Corporate" a lot and also rocket summer. Sometimes people say I sound like Barenaked Ladies mostly because I sing really fast at some points, like in "Love in a Little Grey Box". I also am heavily influenced by John Mayer and Jason Mraz. Adam: Any songs your listening to a lot of these days? Rafe: Ya, I really like "Love Song" by Sara Bareilles. That songs a blatant hit. Also, "Say" by John Mayer I love. Oh yeah, I was never a death cab for cutie fan but...

THE SWEETNESS
'Like' us on Facebook - http://on.fb.me/mhECp2
Videographer - Brian Levin
Sound Engineer - Nick Smith
Audio & Video production by Joe Lynch
"We The Sweetness hold these truths to be self-evident. That not all music is created equal, and sometimes, the whole of the sum is greater than its parts."
Spanning two countries, four very individual, promising music careers, and a multitude of genres & instruments, The Sweetness met somewhere in between. Somehow, solo singer-songwriter soul mates Aly Tadros (Austin, TX), Chloe Charles (Toronto, ON), Douglas Jay Boyd (Austin, TX) and double bassist Sam McLellan (Toronto, ON) managed to find each other, and gathered for a late night of impromptu jamming at the 23rd Annual Folk Alliance International Conference in Memphis, TN.
It began as a backing project for Aly and Chloe's solo projects. Fast friends from the previous years' Folk Alliance, the two had already toured Europe & the States together. A year later, plans were made to meet up in Memphis once again, this time with some favorite collaborators -- Douglas, himself a gifted singer-songwriter -- and Sam, an overactive freelancer & composer. A generously donated hotel room became a makeshift rehearsal space. Harmonies were added, parts extended & rearranged. After playing a number of breakthrough showcases at the conference, the foursome quickly gained buzz and excitement throughout the halls of the hotel.
The creature that is now known as The Sweetness was born in the most unlikely of places: the stairwell between the 17th & 19th floor of the Marriott Hotel in Memphis, TN. The rich four-part harmonies and heavy cajon-driven backbeats echoed and resonated and drew in the crowds of curious and excited spectators. After one particularly rousing number, a voice in the crowd shouted "Sweetness!" and a dream project was born.
The Sweetness went on to record their debut independent EP, "What's it like to be a sprinkler, I wonder?" with producer Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina Spektor) one day before premiering at nine unofficial SXSW 2011 showcases in Austin, Texas. All the while, raising over $8,000 for their first fan-funded European Tour.This summer they depart on their debut North American Tour this fall with Award-winning documentary filmmaker Pascal Fetzer, commissioned by the FilmAkademie (Stuttgart, Germany). In addition to a number of venue and house shows, The Sweetness will be stopping at hospitals, ARC Centers, and Nursing Homes for volunteer performances around the country.
