Turin Brakes are a modern folk pop duo comprising two friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, hailing from Balham, London, signed to Cooking Vinyl.
Turin Brakes have often been compared to many of the New Acoustic Movement's bands spawned in the late 90's such as Elbow, Starsailor, I Am Kloot (who were a support band for Turin Brakes on their Ether Song tour) and the Norwegian band the Kings of Convenience.
Their debut album "The Optimist LP" (2001) was nominated for the Mercury Prize that same year.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

Verse
BG Life isn't always easy DBb This we know my friends BG I thought you knew where to go DBb But you were following me
B So lets get lost in space G I feel this place DBb I'm stuck in the rat race BG It's a lovely day to lose your way DBb And get stuck in the loop.....
Chorus: BGDAB Over and over again, you could never make it stop GDAB Over and over again, you could never make it stop GDAB Over and over again, you could never make it stop GDAB Over and over again, you could never make it stop
Break:
BGDBb x2
BG My old bones stroll along DBb Railway track is oh so long BG Stem the tide, the nine to five DBb Slowly eating me alive BG But all night long, carry on DBbBG We're stumbling slowly to a lovely day to lose your way DBb And get stuck in the loop.....
