About Me


Look, just sign up on the dang thing, and we can let you know about shows in your area. jeez.
Help make us rich and famous by adding the following crap to your page:
Add Farewell Flight's player to your page!
We've heard that technically, this might be against myspace rules. So we do not advise you to add our player to your page. Buuuut...the html is down there...all juicy-like...we're just sayin'.

Or, if you don't want a big, unsightly player on your page, you can add this smaller one instead. How does that sound? Hmm?

"Lush arrangements, distinctly delicate guitar work, and the wounded vocals of Luke Foley elevate Lost At Sea to a near perfect status...If you ever have any kind of desire to listen to a band that just does it right, Farewell Flight will slip into your "February Morning Playlist" quite well next to the likes of Death Cab, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Elliott Smith." - AbsolutePunk.net
"[Farewell Flight is] obsessed with making music. The band’s tight musicianship—undoubtedly a result of its intense touring schedule—is evident in every track. Each member’s contribution builds on and compliments that of the others, a cohesion essential to the group’s layered complexities. Where you won’t find Christian buzz words you’ll find an honest examination of fallen human life in all its complexity. Simply put, Sound. Color. Motion. is a beautiful album." -Justin Pot, CCM Magazine, Feb 2008.
"[Farewell Flight] has asserted itself to be the hardest working act in Pennsylvania...[and] sounds like true emo (not the watered-down, recycled, contemporary version)-Like Sunny Day Real Esate, Death Cab For Cutie, and Elliott Smith." -Andrew Schwab (Project 86/Tooth and Nail), CCM Magazine, July 2007.
"Lost at Sea is an absolute must-listen...everything Farewell Flight writes should be flooding the iPods of young kids in wanderlust." -Gregory Robson, Resident Media Pundit.
"That song Lullaby for Insomniacs is magical or something cause yesterday I got a headache in 4th block 20 min. before school let out and I was with my friend in his truck waiting to get out of the parking lot and I didn't feel good and my friend just who had seen you guys recently hands me some headphones and says "listen to this song it'll help your headache" and I'm thinking bullshit I listen to it and it made my headache go away when the song was done I felt great man." - Myspace friend Derek (aka Squeegee)
Healers of killer headaches from 4th block? We'd like to think so.
Biography We want to play music all year and meet cool people and make some money and not live with our parents. Anything you can do to help with those four things would be greatly appreciated. Especially the third one.
This is us:
Luke- Lead vocals, guitar, piano. Has successfully wrestled polar bears on two separate continents (yes, two!). Supposedly, has received his acceptance letter from Hogwarts, even though the school year has already started. Letter of authenticity has yet to be verified. Can maneuver a van and trailer in reverse faster than Jason Bourne in a Mini Cooper on a Parisian side street. Wins gold medals for outstanding facial hair. Once lost his cell phone 42 times in one day.
Marc- Drums. Has several tattoos that make him look cooler than everyone else in the band (not that that’s hard to do). Still has health insurance. When sporting a stache, he brings forth the ghost of Freddie Mercury. Voted “Most Likely To Not Fail At Life” by the other members in his band. Expert on centaurs.
Robbe- Bass. Real into sleeping. Came in second place on Nickelodeon’s Global Guts after being blinded by a glitter storm (aka snow blizzard) and hitting his opponent’s actuator at the top of the Super Aggro Crag. Still has a crush on Mo, the referee. Currently saving up all his change to buy a Ms. Pac-Man arcade console. Has a pretty good vertical jump.
Timmy- Awesome and (sometimes) guitar. Would rather play for the Steelers, Pens, or Buccs than in Farewell Flight. Good at mowing grass and laying down sod. Hates that he’s good at mowing grass and laying down sod. Near-expert level at “Saved By The Bell” trivia. Wishes he lived in the 1980's and was the lead singer of Final Warning, licking the microphone like David Lee Roth. Instead, he’s just some poor singing orphan.
