Remember The River
Laughing Outlaw
ALT COUNTRY
This follow up to 2004's debut album 'Farewell To The Fainthearted' (LOREV001), which included TRIPLE J single "Patience Back", confirms the potential and delivers the promise of (arguably) Australia's pre-eminent alt-country band. Brisbane boys HALFWAY has grown into an ensemble outfit somewhere between the JAYHAWKS and the FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS.
Produced by WAYNE CONNOLLY (YOUTH GROUP, THE VINES, YOU AM I) & ROB YOUNGER (RADIO BIRDMAN)
Halfway have toured the country with the likes of JOSH PYKE, GINA VILLALOBOS, GOMEZ, THE BLACK KEYS, DAN KELLY & THE ALPHA MALES, LAZY SUSAN
PREVIOUS GLOWING PRESS FOR HALFWAY: COURIER MAIL "One of the best albums of the year, an album like, say, THE TRIFFIDS' Born Sandy Devotional, which captures the flavour of this country without resort to cliche or over-sentimentality." ... 9/10 WHISPERIN & HOLLERIN UK "...such an authentic and beautiful example of their chosen genre that it would be easy to believe that they grew up living next to UNCLE TUPELO, went to school with RYAN ADAMS, hung out with THE JAYHAWKS and had good ol' NEIL YOUNG for an uncle." ... DELUSIONS OF ADEQUACY UK "Farewell to the Fainthearted is a completely heartfelt statement by a collection of outsiders. Leave it to them to produce one of the finest country-inspired rock albums in the last 10 or 15 years." ... Daily Mirror UK "...wheezing harmonicas, Stonesy grit and GRAM PARSONS' melody."
