The Convenience of Being

Weeping Willow

I CAN’T STOP THE FEELING 
I NEED SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN 
THIS WORLD CAN’T SATISFY MY SOUL
NOW PUT YOUR PENCILS DOWN
THIS TEST HAS MOVED DOWNTOWN
SOMETIMES WE STILL NEED ROCK AND ROLL

SO TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO HEAR
TELL ME AS I DRINK MY BEER
I JUST WANT TO FEEL AGAIN
I KEEP TELLING YOU IT’S COOL
IF YOU TREAT ME LIKE A TOOL
TOSS ME IN THE TRASH AND THEN
I’LL KEEP COMING BACK FOR MORE
PLEASE DON’T EVER CLOSE THE DOOR
HELP ME AS I SELF-PRESERVE
HEEDING TO MY EVERY CALL 
AS I TRY THE SLIP AND FALL
GIVE ME ALL THAT I DESERVE

I CAN’T STOP THE FEELING 
I NEED SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN 
THIS WORLD CAN’T SATISFY MY SOUL
NOW PUT YOUR PENCILS DOWN
THIS TEST HAS MOVED DOWNTOWN
SOMETIMES WE STILL NEED ROCK AND ROLL
		
TEARING ME TO PIECES 	
AS MY BLOOD PRESSURE INCREASES
CUT THE RIBBON ON ANOTHER OF MY WONDERFUL DISEASES	
CAREFUL NOT TO GET TO CLOSE
CAUSE YOU DON’T WANT TO BE MY HOST
TURN AROUND AND HIT THE GROUND AND I’LL BE LOOKING LIKE A GHOST
DO YOU FEEL ME? I’M RIGHT THERE
HIDING WITH MY SOUL LAID BARE
WAITING JUST TO TAKE MY TURN
I NEED RESUSCITATING
SO I KEEP ON RESONATING
COME AND HELP BEFORE I CRASH AND BURN

I DON’T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO
I KEEP ON COMING BACK TO YOU

We Still Need Rock and Roll

Recorded at Oakhouse Studios with David Peters, “Wrapped in Blue” is MATCHHOUSE's ode to awakening-to lifting a veil that once dulled your view and embracing life with open eyes. Fueled by gratitude and fire, it's a soaring alt-rock anthem about remembering what it feels like to believe again. Hopeful, honest, and full of heart-this is a song about falling headfirst back into the beauty of being alive.

Wrapped In Blue

The five-time Juno Award winning group The Beaches return with the first tracks from their upcoming third album, ‘No Hard Feelings.’ In this SoundCloud-exclusive commentary, The Toronto-based rock band breaks down tracks from the project. Jordan Miller, who co-founded the band with her sister, Kylie, describes “Last Girls at the Party” as “a really fun bop,” adding, “I totally think we nailed it.” Meanwhile, the song “Did I Say Too Much” strikes another chord: it’s about a painful relationship their bandmate Leandra  Earl endured. Despite the sad subject matter, the chorus is anthemic, Jordan says: “I can feel her pain, and I can feel the rest of us trying to lift her up.” Hear more about the stories behind the songs, only on SoundCloud.

Wayne Baker Brooks serves notice of a new powerful force at play in the music world. Combining outstanding song craft, passionate vocals, and a liquid fire guitar style, this talented artist manages to honor his rich blues heritage while effortlessly expanding the boundaries of the genre.

Born and raised in Chicago, IL amongst the most prolific blues legends and blues masters in the world, Wayne Baker Brooks blues roots may run deeper and wider than the Great Lake Michigan itself, but this truly innovating artist knows no creative boundaries. 

Chicago Blues laid the foundation to Wayne's innovative style. A regular visitor (as a child) at places such as Chess Studios, Checkerboard Lounge, Wisefools, and many other blues landmarks as well as witnessing many live performances by blues masters like Buddy Guy, Jr. Wells, Luther Allsion, KoKo Taylor, the great Muddy Waters, & his father. The youngest son of blues master Lonnie Brooks was born with the blues, for real! There was or is still no way getting around the fate that was appointed to him. 

Failed attempts at being a sports star resulted in a broken foot, twice broken right ankle, broken finger. "Its was God telling me this is not what you're suppose to be doing, I had to figure out the hard way that I'm on this earth to make people smile, laugh, dance, and hopefully feel good through music. So never block your blessing or God will let you know how he feels about it", says Wayne.

With the release of his debut CD "Mystery" in 2004 an album of contemporary blues at it's best draws on blues, blues rock, soul, funk, & even a bit of hip hop. "Mystery" received multiple awards and accolades including a 4 star review in the All Music Guide. 

In addition to releasing his debut he was featured on several TV news programs (including CNN's "Showbiz"), multiple radio programs (including Mancow Morning Show), performed the 2003 MLB All Star Game @ Chicago White Sox Cellular Field, & even performed for the First Lady of the United States Hilary Rodham Clinton at Chess Studios (Willie Dixon Blues Heaven Foundation) in Chicago with legends Bo Diddley, KoKo Taylor, & his dad as his special guest while Chuck Berry was in attendance. As the conclusion of the band's explosive set, Hillary pronounced, "My husband is going to be so jealous he missed this!".

He joined his father's band (Lonnie Brooks) as a roadie in 1988, and started playing guitar in the band in 1990. In 1997, he formed the Wayne Baker Brooks Band while continuing to work with his father's band. In 1998, in addition to appearing in the film Blues Brothers 2000, he also co-wrote Blues for Dummies with his father and Cub Koda, earning his first Real Blues magazine award (Keeping the Blues Alive) for the effort.
