As soon as the band was formed, they began playing in bars around Calgary at age 18 and 19 and quickly released their first CD. Immediately afterward, they began touring around Canada and the U.S. They were quickly noticed for their intensive touring and ended up on the opening slot of tours that featured Death By Stereo, Good Riddance, Diesel Boy, BigWig and eventually travelled on the Warped Tour.
After five full-length releases, one split, several tours and three record labels, Downway collectively decided to end their career, as band members wanted to get married and start 'normal' careers.

This is our Number One Son, ISAAC "PUNKDRUMZ" CREASEY on the Roger's traps. The video was recorded much to His enormous chagrin, in my Brother (Isaac's Uncle) Jim's house in Midnapore Calgary. This album (as were ALL EARLY DOWNWAY ALBUMS) was written and practiced in the basement of Isaac's Parents' (Toni and Jeff) home in Millrise Calgary Canada. Our beautiful Son Isaac passed away on April 16, 2017 at 41 years of age; far far too young. We miss Isaac frightfully and love Him more than the Universe is large...2 months ago•3 Scott RaynorJRC Stargazer RIP, his music will live on
