Wavelength is a rock band from newfoundland working on their second independant album
Hit The Road Running was recorded in the summer of 2000 in Grand Bank, Newfoundland. It was recorded using a close to Antique 4-track recorder which broke on us twice during the entire 3 month session. Once while recording the drums and the tape would not eject, and the second time the rewind and fast forward buttons stopped working. Through all our problems and playing of shows though the CD was finished at a fairly high quality considering we did do it in a hurry, and in a basement and a garage. Drums were recorded in a garage using about 4 microphones to mike the drums and run them through a board into the 4-track. Thanks go out to Philip Piercey and his dad Jim for letting us use their drums and garage. The drum tracks were laid down by Ryan and Matthew. When Ryan played drums, Matthew played rhythm guitar, and vice versa. The rest of the lead guitar and bass was recorded in Ryan's basement while we were moving equipment in and out from playing shows around the area. A lot of the lead and bass was juggled around between Ryan and Matthew. Jeff was mostly unavailable other than at show time because of work, so we did most of his bass tracks. He did the first half of You Walked In, and Matthew fixed the ending so that Jeff could still stay on the CD in some form. The CDs were then mixed by Jeff and Matthew using Jeff's computer. And so the Wavelength legacy started....

Lyrics
Julie's a waitress She's living on tips She came from New Orleans, to the Sunset Strip Might see her dance in a night club Might see her out on the street Cuz you know she'll do anything when she just needs to eat But she's living a lie Not doing what she wants to But she's living a lie She tells her family that she's doing just fine Got a basement apartment It's freezing in the night A mattress on the floor, and a clock that don't work right She thinks she's gonna get married She'll live in Hollywood Hills She thinks she'll get a good job soon that'll pay for the bills But she's living a lie Not doing what she wants to But she's living a lie She tells her family that she's doing just fine Back home where her heart was In a house so far away Sits an angry man Crying Wondering why she didn't stay Was it cuz of his drinking Did he not treat her right He's afraid she might not make it And he's afraid she just might But she's living a lie Not doing what she wants to But she's living a lie She tells her family that she's doing just fine But she's living a lie Soon she'll be doing what she wants to Now she's living a lie Hopefully, she'll be doing just fine
