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) Ryan Brewer (bass), and Carrie Fussel (harmony vocals, texture). 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 EP Monster of Needing was self-released October 13, 2020, and their debut LP Will I Still Bloom? was released October 7th, 2023 with an east coast tour to follow.
