Shows
No public dates on the calendar yet. We're booking the winter season now, and shows will be posted here as they're confirmed.
The duo
Half Step Down takes the heavier side of 90s and 2000s radio and plays it on two acoustic guitars. Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots and Seether sit next to the sing-alongs everyone knows, from Foo Fighters and Jimmy Eat World to Hootie and Fleetwood Mac.
The name comes from the tuning. A lot of those records were cut a half step down, so that's where we play them. They sound the way you remember.
We're built for small rooms. Familiar songs, played at a volume where people can still talk, sing along to the chorus and order one more round.
The set
The list keeps growing. Have a request for your night? Ask when you book.
