Artist description From the mainstream sea of same-old bands emerges 2nd HALF, a positively charged guitar rock two piece out of Cleveland, Ohio. The unique presentation of melodic, aggressive harmonies over thick guitar riffs, funky bass lines, and tight drumbeats is what characterizes their music as 2nd HALF. The catchy lyrical hooks during the choruses also help to further identify their sound. As far as live performances go, fans have literally been quoted as saying 2nd HALF shows are "amazing" and "unbelievable"--why? Because 2nd HALF is, not only the first two piece to do so, but the first band to incorporate video into the entire live show. Any instrumentals/vocals that cannot be accomplished by the two playing live are supplied through the use of a computer, filling in any void that missing members may have created.

Music Style Positively Charged Guitar Rock

Musical Influences 311, Metallica, They Might Be Giants

Artist History After growing up playing in bands with current members of ROADRUNNER Records artist CHIMAIRA and IMMORTAL Records artist SW1TCHED, 2nd HALF began in 1997 to head down a different musical road than their former band mates. Now, having over five years experience with each other and having gone through several lineup iterations, 2nd HALF has found its calling as a two piece and brings a new sound to the music scene of today.
