Halfway Down is a pop-punk band from St. Paul, Minnesota, built around huge hooks, emotionally direct lyrics, and enough heavier influence to keep the edges sharp. The three-piece—Blake Deneweth on lead vocals and guitar, Shawn Kraft on guitar and backing vocals, and Cameron Kraft on drums—pulls from pop-punk, emo, easycore, and metalcore without losing sight of the chorus. Since launching in 2024, Halfway Down has independently built a fourteen-song catalog and surpassed 300,000 Spotify streams. The band was selected for MPR and The Current’s Minnesota Music Month Top 10, received airplay and an interview through The Local Show, and has been covered by V13, Rock the Pigeon, Havoc Underground, Pop Punkers, Never A Phase, and other alternative music outlets. On July 24, 2026, Halfway Down sold out the 150-capacity Pilllar Forum in Minneapolis alongside When The Sun Sets. Their latest single, “Want You,” was released July 3, 2026, continuing the band’s run of melodic, high-energy songs that balance clean hooks, emotional urgency, and heavier live dynamics.
