Born in an Athens, GA living room, hallpass is an indie rock group comprised of Josh Morris (vocals), Gideon Johnston (drums), Daniel Crowe (guitar), and Sam Smith (bass). Fueled by a “feel-good but raw” alternative sound, hallpass has evolved from casual living room jams to an ambitious band making a name for themselves. Their debut album, Spillway, just released in April of 2026.

Over twelve tracks, the band explores the liminal spaces between indie-rock tension, shoegaze expansion, and intimate folk-tinged vulnerability… hallpass has managed to balance technical proficiency with raw, bleeding-heart emotion. They arent afraid of silence, and they arent afraid of noise; they understand that one gives the other its power. (Off The Record Press)
