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).
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.
