Tear in the Radio #2 - The Stolen Volume 2 | Page 59

“We did the Sunday local show
and we just played all these covers all night. After us was this band
that’s no longer a band called Light
These Stars, and around that time
I was fifteen and just getting into
that Warped Tour scene, listening to Mayday Parade and All Time
Low. Seeing this band get on stage
and perform their own music that
no one knew, and actually had the
people singing along with them,
changed everything. I was inspired
and wanted to start writing my own
music.” And at fourteen and fifteen
years old, the group began scribbling lyrics, accompanied by their
acoustic guitars, and sat together
bouncing ideas off each other - a
songwriting habit they continue to
this day - but as they look back, Cuce
and Rob Chiarappa admit the dullness of their early, early work.
