Duo Country
US formé à Nashville (Tennessee) et composé de
Chad Warrix
et David Tolliver.
Halfway to
Hazard is a rock-influenced country duo featuring Chad Warrix on Vocals, guitar,
and mandolin and David Tolliver on Vocals and guitar. Warrix and Tolliver both
grew up in small towns in southeastern Kentucky, and enjoyed remarkably similar
lives -- they were raised in working-class families, had big sisters, enjoyed
sports, and would regularly make the trip to Hazard, KY, which was big enough to
have movie theaters, places to buy beer, and venues for live music. Despite
living 50 miles apart, Warrix and Tolliver became friends after often running
into one another in Hazard. Tolliver was introduced to music as a child,
performing with his family's singing group, while Warrix started writing and
singing his own songs with a rock band in high school. The two were reacquainted
when they moved to Nashville -- Warrix in 1996 when he enrolled at Belmont
University, and Tolliver in 1998 -- and while Warrix didn't intend to make a
career out of performing music, he and Tolliver began performing together at
parties and discovered they had similar tastes and influences. In time, Warrix
and Tolliver began writing material that combined their taste for both
hard-edged rock & roll and heartfelt country story-songs, and they started
making the rounds of Nashville clubs. In 2006, Halfway to Hazard got their big
break when they were invited to join
Faith Hill and
Tim McGraw on their Soul2Soul concert tour, and they signed a deal with
Mercury Records. Their song "Daisy" became a hit on country radio, and their
self-titled debut album was released in the summer of 2007.
