Gooseberry - Dying To Meet You
When the curtain starts to open
And everyone is gone
You feel so damn cold
You burn like the sun
Keep your head above the water
Keep your eyes beneath the gun
You’ll never be so certain
I’m pretty sure I am
But who could ever bend
The will of a man?
Keep your eyes up to the heavens
Like you’d ever understand
★ Pre-Chorus ★
You’re here for a lifetime
Then you’re not
★ Chorus ★
I
I’m dying to meet you
I
I’m dying to meet you
Again
I am
★ Verse 2 ★
So come out of the shadows
I know that’s where you live
Because it’s easier to steal life
Than it is to give
Keep your eyes down to the heavens
Like you know just where it is
★ Pre-Chorus ★
You’re here for a lifetime
Then you’re not
★ Chorus ★
I
I’m dying to meet you
I
I’m dying to meet you
There
★ Refrain ★
I am dying to meet you
I am dying
I am dying to meet you
Again
★ Pre-Chorus ★
You’re here for a lifetime
Then you’re not
★ Breakdown ★
I
I’m dying to meet you
Yes I am
I
I’m dying to meet you
Again, again, again
I
I’m dying to meet you
Well you know I am
I
I’m dying to meet you
I
I’m dying to meet you
Well you know I am
I
I’m dying to meet you
★ Refrain ★
I am dying to meet you
I am dying
I am dying to meet you
Again

Biography
The band is a genre-bending alchemy of many disparate elements. They are often referred to as having “two bands in one.” This phenomenon can be attributed to the distinctly different approaches of their two chief songwriters—Asa and Sam. It is this dynamic that enables Gooseberry to deftly maneuver from a song like The Protagonist, which comeherefloyd described as “indie goodness” with a “catchy melody, pulsing beat, and boastful guitars,” to a song like Berkshires, which NYS Music says harkens “back to major influences like D’Angelo, Donny Hathaway, and Stevie Wonder.” While the pandemic put a halt to live music right about the time Gooseberry teamed up, the group kept busy, recording and releasing three singles which have racked up greater than 100K streams to date. Per Tonemill, “The music feels live, organic and…we can imagine belting out adoringly while swaying our bodies at a Gooseberry gig.” Gooseberry’s debut EP is due out in 2022.
New on the block, Gooseberry has already begun developing a devoted following in and around New York City, running the full gamut of venues from The Bowery Electric to DROM to house shows across the boroughs, quickly staking their claim in the ever-lively Brooklyn music scene. Fans know they’ll be kept on their toes, as the band moves in and out of genres and styles, always keeping the crowd engaged. The band expects a big year on the road in 2022, starting off with gigs at famous NYC hotspots like The Knitting Factory and Mercury Lounge.
