about

Maggie Vagle sings a tune written by Rico Sisney. Also called Art of Beatbox.

lyrics

Rico:
The Big Bang was a bass Drum
The collapse of the cosmos will be a handclap
and all the greatest moments in human history
were syncopation on the hi-hat

Maggie:
Started so simply
It's almost hard to believe
that the beat of a drum
like a tree in the heat could become
Music...

We never let it slip away
No matter what else they take
They can never replace this
Touch because it's so basic
but it's an Agent of Change

It's Real so Real...
It's everything they don't want us to feel
It's Genuine so Genuine
It's all that we'll have left in the end...

Rico:
The Big Bang was a bass Drum
The collapse of the cosmos will be a handclap
and all the greatest moments in human history
were syncopation on the hi-hat

It's Real so Real...
It's everything they don't want us to feel

It's Genuine so Genuine
It's everything we have in the end...

about

Rico Sisney Chicago, Illinois

I am the emcee for Chicago bands Sidewalk Chalk and Treehouse and the founder of Chicago Artist collective The Gala. Artistically, those are my main pursuits so please follow and support them.
I rarely release anything solo and even when I do I enlist an "Army of Geniuses*" to help make it happen. I make music that I love. If you dig it, let's get down.
