ARTIST

Pop-punk has always thrived on big choruses, honest lyrics, and the kind of energy that demands to be played with the windows down. Minnesota band Halfway Down understands that formula well—but they're not afraid to push it in new directions.

The independent group recently released “Want You” on July 3, a single that blends catchy pop-punk hooks with emo influences and touches of easycore. Premiering through V13 ahead of its official release, the track delivers exactly what fans of the genre love: memorable melodies, polished production, and an infectious chorus that stays with you long after the song ends.
Drawing comparisons to bands like Blink-182, A Day To Remember, Four Year Strong, and The Wonder Years, “Want You” captures the spirit of modern pop-punk while embracing the heavier influences that have helped define Halfway Down's sound.

Halfway Down

Based in St. Paul, Minnesota, the band describes itself simply: "Halfway Down is what happens when pop-punk gets restless."

That restlessness can be heard throughout their music. Their songs move comfortably between pop-punk, emo, metalcore, and easycore, creating a sound that feels familiar while still leaving room for experimentation.

Over the past two years, Halfway Down has steadily built an audience through independent releases, DIY promotion, and a consistent presence within the alternative music community. Their efforts have earned support from outlets including MPR / The Current, V13, Rock The Pigeon, Havoc Underground, and a growing network of independent radio stations and music blogs.

Despite reaching tens of thousands of listeners, the band sees its current momentum as only the beginning.

“Want You” represents another step forward for a group that continues to evolve without losing sight of what made listeners connect with them in the first place: energy, sincerity, and a love for loud guitars and bigger choruses.

For fans of pop-punk and emo, Halfway Down offers a reminder that the genre remains very much alive—and still has plenty left to say.

And if the band is right, they're only getting started.
