Key Information

History

[edit]

Early career (2010–2011)

[edit]

HalfNoise was created two days after Zac Farro's departure from Paramore, under the original name "Tunnel".[4] Zac took part in this new project, along with Jason Clark, releasing a song called "Hide Your Eyes".[5][6][7]

Farro and Clark had earlier been together in a band with Taylor York and Farro's brother Josh Farro prior to Paramore. The duo then renamed themselves "HalfNoise" due to other bands being named "Tunnel". In March 2011, it was announced that Farro would be joining his brother's band Novel American, but would still continue take part in HalfNoise.[8][9][10]

HalfNoise EP (2012)

[edit]

After Farro left Paramore, he started working on HalfNoise's debut EP self-titled HalfNoise. The production was finished on 2011, Farro stated that he recorded almost all the instruments with his friend Daniel James, "I played all the drums, I did all the sampling. Me and a producer called Daniel James did the guitars together, but it was mainly just me performing."[11] On June 14, 2012, HalfNoise released their first official single "Free the House" along with a music video. The song served as the lead single of the EP, which was released on October 1, 2012, in the UK through Xtra Mile Recordings and on October 2 through their official website. The EP composed of previous demos from 2010 and new material.[12] Later in 2012, the EP was made available for free digital download through NoiseTrade.[13]

Volcano Crowe (2013–2014)

[edit]

Farro posted via Instagram in August 2013 that he spent 7 months writing and recording a new full-length album with his friends and producer Daniel James. He also stated that the album is titled Volcano Crowe because he recorded the album at the bottom of a volcano and his friend Rowan Crowe was the reason he visited New Zealand in the first place.[14] The album production was finished on September 29, 2013.[15] On May 26, 2014, Farro premiered the album's first single, "Mountain",[16][17] and on September 16 released he released the second single "Hurricane Love" with a music video of a live performance of the song at New Zealand.[18] The album was released on September 30, 2014, via Bandcamp.

The Velvet Face EP (2017)

[edit]

On March 24, 2017, HalfNoise's second EP, The Velvet Face, was released. Farro said that the EP doesn't only "demonstrate the light heartedness of HalfNoise, but I think it also encompasses my own vulnerabilities musically and artistically. I feel like this EP encompasses the feeling you get from a full LP, but filtered through only 5 songs. This is definitely the most important piece of music, to me personally, that I've ever written or worked on to-date with HalfNoise. Not only was it special for me as an artist and writer but from my friends who played, collaborated, and shared with me in making something so special."[22] The EP includes a collaboration with Paramore vocalist Hayley Williams in the song "As U Wave", band in which Farro returned the same month of the release of the EP, but still continue with Halfnoise. The songs "Scooby's In The Back" and "French Class" began to be interpreted by Paramore on their "After Laughter" tours.

The EP has three music videos: On March 7, 2017, Farro uploaded a music video for "French Class" on YouTube,[23] on June 15, Farro uploaded a music video for "Someday"[24] and on October 11, he uploaded a music video for "Scooby's In The Back".[25]

Flowerss EP (2018)

[edit]

On February 23, 2018, Farro announced that he would release his new EP "Flowerss" on May 4 and released his new single of the same name that same day.[26][27] Farro released the second single, "All That Love Is", on April 5.

A third single, "She Said", was released on April 13.

On October 4, 2019, HalfNoise released their 3rd studio album, Natural Disguise. Singles from the album were Who Could You Be, Boogie Juice, and Natural Disguise. Boogie Juice was played by Paramore during their tour in 2022.

In late 2010, Farro left alongside his brother , citing a combination of personal struggles—including a "really bad attitude" during his final year, feelings of misery, and a desire to "reinvent" himself—and creative differences with the band on several matters. Farro had contemplated leaving as early as , seeking counsel to ensure his decision was deliberate rather than impulsive, and emphasized that his exit was independent of his brother's, driven by a need for personal growth and a new direction.

As HalfNoise gained traction, Jason Clark, the project's co-founder, departed in 2012, solidifying it as Farro's solo endeavor and allowing him greater creative control. Early live performances during this period, including shows in Nashville and support slots on regional tours, helped build a following, with audiences drawn to Farro's energetic drumming and vulnerable vocals.

The project's sound has evolved significantly since its inception, beginning with lo-fi, home-recorded aesthetics in early self-released works like the 2014 album Volcano Crowe, which featured raw, intimate production, and progressing to more polished, dance-oriented in subsequent releases such as Natural Disguise (2019) and City Talk (2023). This shift reflects a refinement in production techniques, moving from bedroom-style recordings to vibrant, layered compositions that balance accessibility with psychedelic depth.

Influences

Zac Farro, the creative force behind HalfNoise, has drawn from a range of artists that shaped his transition from drummer in to and frontman, allowing him to explore sounds beyond the pop-punk framework of his earlier career. Primary among these is , whose pop-punk energy and heavier-hitting drum patterns provided foundational inspiration for Farro's rhythmic approach in HalfNoise. He has specifically noted their influence on his drumming development, crediting them with igniting his passion for dynamic, energetic percussion that carries through HalfNoise's upbeat tracks. Radiohead's experimental textures have profoundly impacted 's incorporation of ambient and ethereal elements, pushing HalfNoise toward moody, atmospheric compositions. Farro described delving into during the project's early stages to experiment with these sounds, marking a deliberate shift toward more introspective and layered production post-Paramore. This influence is evident in HalfNoise's evolving sound, where psychedelic and textural depth adds complexity to otherwise melodic structures. Beyond these core inspirations, Farro has pulled from diverse acts to enrich HalfNoise's palette. Sigur Rós's ambient post-rock has guided Farro toward expansive, immersive soundscapes, as he sought to capture ethereal atmospheres during HalfNoise's formative years in New Zealand. Sunny Day Real Estate's emo roots echo in the raw emotional undercurrents, tying back to Farro's punk origins. Additionally, Icelandic acts like Sigur Rós and múm have been pivotal; Farro has called múm one of his biggest influences for HalfNoise, praising their playful electronica for inspiring lighthearted, experimental beats.

Clark departed after these formative recordings, leaving Farro to helm the project solo for its subsequent releases. Logan MacKenzie joined as lead guitarist in 2014 and has remained a key long-term contributor, participating in recordings beginning with the album Volcano Crowe. MacKenzie's guitar and keyboard work has notably enhanced the project's live dynamics, supporting Farro's vision in performances and studio efforts.
