    Half Light Music

    Alternative Rock

    Half Light Music’s origins can be traced back to the abrupt demise of Epic recording artist, Bliss 66. Frontman and songwriter, Cheyenne Goff, found himself with a growing catalogue of material but lacking the right combination of players to bring the songs to life. Alongsid long time friend and bassist, Donnie Patty, who had shared the stage with Goff both in Paper Street Saints, a Detroit-based rock outfit that generated much local and regional success, they began to sketch out a vision of what would become Half Light Music. As the cinders began to cool on PSS, it became clear that it was time for them to get back to their roots – making hook oriented, pop/rock songs that folks could tap their foot and sing along to….And that is exactly what they’ve done.

    Along with lead guitarist Marty Yount, and drummer & ex-66er Bob Cook, Half Light Music have developed a sound that fuses modern and classic rock song structures with Goff’s vivid and poetic lyricism; a union that enables the strong suits of each individual players’ skill set to shine. Indulging a diversity of influences throughout their 10 year career, they’ve continued to explore new ways of bringing Goff’s compositions to life, without losing sight of the melodic foundations that have always been the impetus of their music.
