Since 2002, Half of Reason has built a reputation for fun and original rock music in the Wichita area. Our present 3-hour set list is 70% unique, original music directed at the 20-40 demographic. The remaining list contains pop cover songs ranging from hits such as "Learn to Fly" (Foo Fighters) and "Kryptonite" (3 Doors Down) to a rocked up version of "Possession" (Sarah McLachlan).
Half of Reason performs monthly in the greater Wichita area, and we've had the pleasure of playing many great venues over the past five years including Club Liquid, O'Sullivans (formerly MyRoom), Port of Wichita, JC's House of Rock, John Barleycorn's, Emerson Biggins, America's Pub, Lizard Lounge, Champs, Shamrock, The Game, and Wichita State University -- to name a few -- plus the occasional plugged-in acoustic gig at Riverside Perk or the Artichoke Sandwich Bar.
We've had the honor of sharing the stage with a wide range of other fine Wichita area musicians including Tainted, Alien8, Signum, the Sluggos, Shorn, Shagdaddys, The Vehicles, Rule of 2, Layden, Nikki Moddelmog, Carrie Cooley, Sage Flower, Jeffrey Faus and more. Thanks to T95 for supporting local music and airing Half of Reason songs on ICT Underground!
It all began in 2001 with Kelly’s suggestion to record some of David’s original instrumental music. With the help of the very talented Henry on bass and the inspiring lyrics of BeauHemia, the music took shape.
