Single Release: Roses
Roses is an exploration of life after revelation; of stepping outside yourself as an objective observer. The words "Have I been living? Or have I been cold? I felt so warm" speak to the experience of looking at the past through the lens of the present, and the realization that every version of ourselves exists at once. What freedom awaits when we choose to define our own reality? Half Dream offers up a slow burn mid-tempo jam with this release; something that will give listeners something to chew on or rock out to—the windows down, radio up.
BIO
Half Dream is a rock n’ roll band based in Austin, TX and is comprised of Paige Renée Berry (guitar, vocals), Laine Higgins (lead guitar), Wes Armstrong (drums) and Vanessa Jollay (bass, backing vocals). Formed in 2018, Half Dream began with the name and songs of Paige Renée Berry and changed their moniker to reflect the ethereal and collaborative nature of the sound. Paige Berry’s songwriting explores identity, overcoming trauma, & moving past fear. Floating melodies find punch in driving hooks that highlight vocal subtleties, landing somewhere between dream and tenuous reality. These songs were born from a love of storytelling, radical empathy, and unfiltered expression from artists like Joni Mitchell, Simon and Garfunkel, and Helen Reddy. Half Dream finds its home with fans of Angel Olsen, Big Thief, Wye Oak, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus. The band’s debut album was self-released October 13 2020 with an east coast tour to follow in 2022.
