Sky Road Fly. Basically, if the Foo Fighters grew up on a farm, they would probably be Sky Road Fly. They write majestic anthems with intricate interplay. Live, guitarist Robert Halstead careens about and flails with a rock and roll St. Vitus dance of pure ecstasy. - dane101.com
Sky Road Fly is a rock quartet that's been on the scene since last year. This fall, the band released its debut album, Pure Danger. Their songs recall eras when rock explored new song structures — think 1970s prog and 1990s grunge. "Train Magnet" recasts grunge's quiet/loud/quiet formula by emphasizing tempo changes. At the approach of each chorus, the sluggish, hard-driving guitars turn quick, limber and steady. - Isthmus

Bio
Sky Road Fly is a four-piece rock band from Madison, WI. They combine the groove consciousness of 1972, the musical curiosity of the mid-80's underground, and the fierce sounds and energy of the early 90's, to create a unique sound that commands attention.
Formed in late 2008 by long-time musical conspirators, Robert Halstead (guitar/vox) and Kyle Sturtevant (drums), with musician Ben Jarosh (guitar/vox), Sky Road Fly has been a jamming, writing, and recording machine. Dustin Harmon (bass/vox) took notice and enlisted himself to end the band's cycle of short-term bass players.
After Kyle left for the west coast in late 2010, David Payne filled in on the skins and has been hittin' 'em ever since.
