Conquering the Fear of Flight (2007)
New Flicker Records’ rock band Wavorly debuts Conquering the Fear of Flight. From Tupelo, Mississippi, the band combines various sets of strings to many variations of rock to create a semi-unique modern rock sound. The band began as the college pop-punk band, Freshman 15, but after changes and a new vision went with the better choice of modern rock.

ARTIST INFORMATION
About:
Wavorly drew its first creative breath as a pop punk assemblage of college students from Tupelo, Mississippi called Freshmen 15. It wasn’t long, though, before vocalist Dave Stovall and bassist Matt Lott caught a grander vision for what their music and purpose could be. A few years of growth and evolution, some line-up changes and a couple hundred shows later, Wavorly bursts onto the national scene with their Flicker Records debut, Conquering The Fear of Flight, a sprawling modern rock masterpiece that blends elements of alternative, classic progressive rock, indie-rock and hard rock with highly literate lyrics, a boldly imaginative use of strings and a sublime sense of melody. In the league of other genre-stretching acts like Muse, My Chemical Romance, Mae and Switchfoot, Wavorly rocks with heart and mind intact.
