Human Highway (band)

The band started in the early 2000s;^[4] the pair had previously worked together in the band Islands, and Thorburn asked Guthrie for help with a song called "My Beach".^[5] The band's name is a reference to the Neil Young song "Human Highway".^[6][4]

The duo's debut album, Moody Motorcycle,^[7] was released in August 2008 on Secret City Records in Canada and Suicide Squeeze Records in the United States.^[8] Islands members Evan Gordon, Geordie Gordon, and Aaron Harris were recruited to fill out the band. Reviews of the album were fairly positive.^[9][8][1]

Up to that time Human Highway was strictly a recording project; the band began playing live support of the album, performing in New York^[10] as well as four live shows in Ontario and Quebec^[11] and took part in Canada Music Week in March.^[12] They released a video to accompany their song "The Sound" before going on tour.^[13]
