A tale of sorrow from the countryside, but still quite danceable!

BANTER is a band which combines modern and classic rock sounds in most refreshing ways.
Banter rocked the clubs and airwaves of the Northeast United States from 1996-2004 with a catalog of songs infusing everything from folk and punk and Arabian drones into a unique brand of rock that defies classification (OK, fine, call them alt rock if you must). Their lyrics range from musical paintings of places that have affected their lives (and ours), as found in songs like "The Fort," "Springtime in February" and "Three Weeks," to themes of angst and paranoia as tackled in "Lowered" and "Farewell." Their CDs, which include the highly acclaimed EP and their full-length album , brought the group international attention with reviews in places as remote as Bryansk, Russia and chart success in France. BANTER has performed throughout the Northeast United States from New York to New Hampshire and has championed the New England media from magazines to TV.

Lyrics
Claireville Countryside words and music by Dan Sheehan Rolling down through the Claireville countryside I could see the stars and moon were on my side I remember the place where I saw your face come out of the rain Stay here, go away What's that? What you say? I can't tell anymore... Rolling down through the Claireville countryside I remember times we laughed and times we cried I remember the breeze that blew through the trees And whispered of pain Come back, go away What's that? What you say? I won't tell anyone... Rolling down through the Claireville countryside All my friends and enemies were side by side I remember the breeze that blew through the trees And whispered of pain Come back, go away What's that? What you say? I won't tell anyone... Rolling down through the Claireville countryside All my thoughts and hopes and dreams were swept aside I remember the breeze that blew through the trees And whispered your name
