444 Club presents Two Down At Half Time + Butterfly Fan The Inferno

Two Down At Half Time:
Two Down At Halftime are a pop punk band, formed in mid September 2007. The band made its live debut at the Hertford Corn Exchange in early October and put their first EP up for free download in December. By February they played their first headline show at the White Hart pub in Whitechapel. The trio played their fifth show to the packed out audience at the WGC Green Room, before beginning to write a second EP in March, and hopes to begin gigging again in the near future, supporting this new material.
The band takes its biggest influences from the likes of Blink 182 and Bowling For Soup, playing a fast paced, adrenalin pumping sound with simple yet melodic guitar harmonies. The group have broadened their musical horizons by covering some unlikely artists, including renditions of Cyndi Lauper’s ’Time after time’ and Aqua’s ’Barbie Girl’ and even the dance song ’I like to move it’.

Butterfly Fan The Inferno:
The band first came together in Boston, MA in early 2006 and played its first show in June of that year (on 6/6/6!) They recorded 2 EPs and played around 20 shows in the Northeast. An album was completed in early 2008 with some band members and some studio musicians laying the tracks. A relocation took place to Birmingham in Feb 2008 and a new line-up is coming together to play gigs and promote the album.
