Shortly after the band’s conception, they began putting work into their first EP, “It’s Not All That Bad.” The EP, which was written over the span of a few short months, was recorded in the same place the band writes and practices– a basement. Each song from their now infamous basement tapes started as a jam session, which turned into an iPhone recording, which ended in Sartino playing it over her car radio on the way home from practice, so she could sing along to it until she found the right words.
Other than the music itself, The Greeting Committee’s ultimate goal is to create a collaborative environment for everyone around them. They see themselves as a massive art project, and want to get as many creative minds involved as possible, which includes the listeners. The music is the soundtrack to something much bigger.

The Greeting Committee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't need much, but I need your lovin'
Ooh, I've been so down without you around
Hold me up so I put the work in
Knew it'd be hard, know that it's worth it
Ooh, I've been wearing myself out
But there you go again, driving me mad when
You, oh
You're making me love you more
Than all of the days before
Know I love you more
Know I love you more
I just want a pocket to put my heart in
Set to pick yours, always been certain
Oh, how'd you ever forget?
That all that I've ever been good at
Is giving my all just to deserve this
Oh, I'm not even close
But there you go again, driving me mad when
But there you go again, driving me mad when
You, oh
You're making me love you more
Than all of the days before
Know I love you more
Know I love you more
You, oh
You're making me better than
I ever could've been on my own
Swear that I love you more
Know I love you more, oh
You know that I love you more
Ooh, I swear that I love you more
Just know that I love you more
