Man, if The Northern Way doesn't break out in a major way within the next year, it's certainly not going to be for a lack of having radio-friendly songs. This morning, the outfit, formerly known as Set Forth, premiered its brand new single, "Starting Line," on MySpace. Matching the undeniable...

Take a listen to the single after the jump and then pick it up via iTunes on Brother Bear Records, an imprint which has also released music from Young Coyotes and I am the Dot.
