“Back to Austin” is the newest release from Bat City five-piece Halfway Atlantic. It’s an anthemic pop punk melody featuring pleasant pop vocals, sweet guitars, soft bass, and punchy drums. The lyrics are catchy throughout, but especially in the chorus - “I’m driving back to Austin but I won’t be there for you.” It’s something we could imagine screaming along to whilst arm in arm with a crowd of friends and strangers at a Warped Tour. The band describes the track as an attempt to make “the happiest sounding sad song,” and we concur.
We added this track to our Underground Punk playlist on Spotify. Sing along to the lyric video below and then check out the band’s social media here for more news.
