After many years together in the Portland, OR band, Jonah, Henry Curl and Chris Hayes have formed The Half-Hearted; an acoustic based indie outfit that explores the simplicity and beauty of the well-written song. No fanfare, no bells or whistles, no lights or fog machines or ear splitting decibals...just two musicians sitting down with their guitars and voices to get to the essence of what makes a song worth listening to. If a tune can't grab you and take you to another place without all that other stuff, it probably isn't worth playing or hearing. Thanks for stopping by.
what!, another band?!?, you are now the most prolific songster of our age. You henceforth shall be dubbed Johenry Sebastian Curl and we bow to your prolificness! (...is prolificness a word?...)
