Artist Information
Biography
The core of Halfway Broken's sound combines the raw emotional elements of bands they grew up listening to with a diverse mix of influences; music from the rock spectrum and beyond. It is a sound that is familiar yet distinctively theirs, some say a crossbreed of Incubus and A Perfect Circle. The band made large strides in the past year by consistently playing packed clubs, garnering radio airplay and support from four commercial stations, and releasing their brand new EP "The Artist," which is gaining rave reviews. They have played at many of the premium local rock venues throughout the mid-atlantic region, including the Recher Theatre, TT Reynolds, Fletchers, and many others. They are making a name for themselves in the lucrative college market as well, booking numerous shows through their involvement in NACA. National acts such as Breaking Benjamin, Nonpoint, The Used, My Chemical Romance, Story of the Year, Thrice, and others have had Halfway Broken as an opening act. Their self-produced debut release "Life As It Seems" sold over 1,000 copies and will easily eclipse that total in the next few months with their new release. With alot of hard work and a little luck Halfway Broken will do its part to put the Baltimore music scene on the map.
