"My band is real good, mang."
-Luke Foley, Lead Singer, Farewell Flight, Sep 2005.
"Farewell Flight however has given me an album that slows it all down and tells me to relax and enjoy... There is just something about an indie band, with no label, working hard to tour, and create more music that just makes an already amazing album, even more... "Sound.Color.Motion." might be the nicest [surprise] of 2008, provided by the hardworking folks in Farewell Flight. Don't believe me? Give this charming record at least one spin and see if you don’t instantly fall in love with its soothing twists and turns. Come on, I dare you."
-10 out of 10 – SkylinePress. net
(Pernell, 11/1/08)
"There are quite a few unsigned bands out there who should not be in their current unsigned status, and the least of these is Farewell Flight...[They] have crafted a fine album indeed; and paired [it] with a great live show and relentless tour schedule."
-8.6 out of 10- AbsolutePunk.net, Aug 2008
"See what I mean?"
-Luke Foley, Lead Singer, Farewell Flight, April 2009.
"Lush arrangements, distinctly delicate guitar work, and the wounded vocals of Luke Foley elevate Lost At Sea to a near perfect status...If you ever have any kind of desire to listen to a band that just does it right, Farewell Flight will slip into your "February Morning Playlist" quite well next to the likes of Death Cab, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Elliott Smith."
- AbsolutePunk.net, Oct 2006
"[Farewell Flight is] obsessed with making music. The band’s tight musicianship—undoubtedly a result of its intense touring schedule—is evident in every track. Each member’s contribution builds on and compliments that of the others, a cohesion essential to the group’s layered complexities. Where you won’t find Christian buzz words you’ll find an honest examination of fallen human life in all its complexity. Simply put, Sound. Color. Motion. is a beautiful album."
-Justin Pot, CCM Magazine, Feb 2008.
"[Farewell Flight] has asserted itself to be the hardest working act in Pennsylvania...[and] sounds like true emo (not the watered-down, recycled, contemporary version)-Like Sunny Day Real Esate, Death Cab For Cutie, and Elliott Smith."
-Andrew Schwab (Project 86/Tooth and Nail), CCM Magazine, July 2007.
"Lost at Sea is an absolute must-listen...everything Farewell Flight writes should be flooding the iPods of young kids in wanderlust."
-Gregory Robson, Resident Media Pundit.
"That song Lullaby for Insomniacs is magical or something cause yesterday I got a headache in 4th block 20 min. before school let out and I was with my friend in his truck waiting to get out of the parking lot and I didn't feel good and my friend just who had seen you guys recently hands me some headphones and says "listen to this song it'll help your headache" and I'm thinking bullshit I listen to it and it made my headache go away when the song was done I felt great man."
- Myspace friend Derek (aka Squeegee)
Healers of killer headaches from 4th block? We'd like to think so.
Biography
We want to play music all year and meet cool people and make some money and not live with our parents. Anything you can do to help with those four things would be greatly appreciated. Especially the third one.
This is us:
Luke- Lead vocals, guitar, piano. Has successfully wrestled polar bears on two separate continents (yes, two!). Supposedly, has received his acceptance letter from Hogwarts, even though the school year has already started. Authenticity of letter has yet to be verified. Can maneuver a van and trailer in reverse faster than Jason Bourne in a Mini Cooper on a Parisian side street. Wins gold medals for outstanding facial hair. Once lost his cell phone 42 times in one day.
Marc- Drums, muscle. Has several tattoos that make him look cooler than everyone else in the band (not that it’s hard to do). Still has health insurance. When sporting a stache, he brings forth the ghost of Freddie Mercury. Voted “Most Likely To Not Fail At Life” by the other members in his band. Believes in and is afraid of "Cubicle Trolls".
Expert on centaurs.
Robbe- Bass. Real into sleeping. Came in second place on Nickelodeon’s Global Guts after being blinded by a glitter storm (aka snow blizzard) and hitting his opponent’s actuator at the top of the Super Aggro Crag. Still has a crush on Mo, the referee. Secretly wants to be a speed-cuber (someone who can do a Rubik's cube in like 15 seconds). Will never have an actual girlfriend because of that last sentence. Has a pretty good vertical jump.
Rabbit- Lead guitar, mandolin, background vocals. Good at everything, especially eating candy and drinking Mountain Dew. Can impersonate Nicholas Cage better than Nicholas Cage can impersonate himself or anyone else for that matter. Can also accurately identify almost any make and type of ink pens while blindfolded (this is not a joke). Has great posture.
