BEATS WORKING are a 4 piece guitar orientated rock band from the UK, led by guitarist/songwriter John Hardman. John's career stretches back a long way. Starting out in the mid seventies with rock/pop band Sunfighter on EMI, being the main songwriter and guitarist for that band, his career has also led him to write and produce work for many other bands/projects and work with a number of major producers such as Roy Thomas Baker, Gus Dudgeon and Chris Rainbow. In 1986 John formed Beats Working as a vehicle for the many songs he has written. Beats Working have so far made 10 albums, a compilation singles album and an EP 'No More Tomorrows' released in 2007. Latest album is 'No More Unfinished Tomorrows'.  Their  album "Calm" has been receiving great reviews from music press all over the world. Their music has been likened in influence to various other well known rock and progressive rock bands, but is definitely their own special Beats Working sound - a special blend of song based rock that is gradually achieving critical acclaim everywhere.

REVIEW 
"It's not often Britain produces a truly classy, mainstream rock band. But Beats Working definitely fall into this category. A combination of Dire Straits, Pink Floyd and Bad Company with added touches of Barclay James Harvest this foursome make it all sound so relaxed and easy, as they groove their way through 12 stylishly melodic songs that ooze maturity, yet avoid sounding contrived. One of the most impressive British rock albums in ages, 'Calm' is classic rock in all senses of the term." MALCOLM DOME, Classic Rock Magazine

Friday night, turn the radio on 
my beer is stone cold  
my favorite country song
fills the air in my truck 
makes my baby momma swoon...

they interrupt 
my perfect small town cool 
another crazy city fella
shot up another school
and now they’ll come for my guns 
just because
sometimes the Devil
grabs a loon

It ain’t fair to be persecuted 
for what another man done did
you see a problem 
you straight up shoot it
it’s what I was taught
it’s what I will teach my kid

I’m sending you my thoughts & prayers
now let me tell you what those are:
I thought of you gettin' mauled by bears
and I prayed you'd get run over by a car!

'f you been huntin’ all day
you need to spray them
wanna ask those Newtown actors
who paid 'em
cause God’s honest truth
don’t need to mess with no facts

(oh, don't you hate them fa*s)

trigger makes me happy
barrel makes me hard
them boys keep the Free World free—
I do my part
ain’t no government wrote me a check
that I didn’t cash!

ain’t wrong if you didn’t ax
(it ain't wrong)
 
I’m sending you my thoughts & prayers
now let me tell you what those are:
I thought you might get mauled by bears
and then I prayed you'd get run over by a car

or bears in a car
(don’ matter the kind of bear)
(don’ matter the kind of car)

I thought it’s too much work to pretend to care
and I pray they don’t have mainstream news
on any TV’s in the bar...

Grab my hand just just one more time
Stab my back with a bloody knife
Only life but somehow- you just- found a- way to- fuck it twice
I swear to god, you’d take my legs and tear em off
I’d still crawl through the scary dark, back to you

standing on stage
screaming out her name
cause she makes me feel a way these days
helps with the pain
pray to god it stays this way
and i pray to god she feels the same
cause i see her in my dreams
and they can’t escape

Bump my music while i open veins
Look into my eyes can you not see all of the shit that change
Im older now but i feel like
The shit i seen ain't changed
So if i end it all tonight
Know that i love you.

I’d still crawl through the scary dark, back to you [prod.sobernap]

I’m Down

Lyrics:

It's not so easy to make me lonely
It's not so easy to make me cry
Take your tricks and games and throw them out the window for now
I've got irons in the fire - put you on the back burner

You looked so fragile, looked so pale
Sweat on your brow, your hair a charming mess
Your eyes were kind but dazed

Clouded judgement inspires affection, inspires respect, inspires trust
Your eyes were dazed
This time I'll keep my sense, I'll keep my pride, I'll keep my distance
But you looked so fragile, looked so pale 

(Backing vocal, freely quoting "Blue/Violet Light": No turning back, your reflection fair
Your shadow music, vibrating in dull light
My vision blurry, your image blurry
Caught in a Timelapse in dull light)

It's not so easy to make me lonely
It's not so easy to make me cry
Take your tricks and games and throw them out the window for now
I've got irons in the fire - put you on the back burner

Easy (original version)
