Artist Biography |
|
|
|
Half A Halo was created in Toronto, Canada in April of 2003. The band consists of Dave singing and playing guitar, John the screamer playing bass, Joe on guitars and Collin on drums.
Spawned from failed pasts, Half A Halo came together out of desperation to create the music they weren't hearing. Fusing heavy riffs, light melody and a sense of song with 2 distinctly different vocalists, Half A Halo quickly caught the attention of The Agency Group, who have been booking them steadily at legendary venues such as Zaphods in Ottawa, and producer's Ruben Huizenga (Edwin, Glueleg) and Byron Wong (David Usher, Crystal Method) who recorded a 3 track demo in September of 2003. Management quickly followed in the form of Krista Evans (K.N.E Entertainment) and Bob Luhtala (I Mother Earth, Edwin).
Artist Mission
Drawing on influences such as Pantera, Jeff Buckley, Coldplay, U2, Zeppelin and Metallica, Half A Halo's sound is an organic meld of polyrhythmic guitar parts over percussive grooves while melodic vocals dance with the devil. From the Radioheadish "Incurable" to the face melting "Past", Half A Halo's mantra is one of self discovery, acceptance and the search for truth. 2004 will see the band recording their first EP and performing at a venue near you.
