American High are an indie/alternative rock quartet from Sacramento, California. They play 'catchy tunes with dark themes'. Their sound and lyrics have a sharp perspective on the personal, the social and the political, not to mention a wide musical palette. Come for the toe tapping and stay for the soul searching. You can expect 60's style vocal harmonies with punk rock distortion and a social conscious not seen much these days. Fans of the Kinks, Green Day, The Sonics and Blink-182 will love this record.
"Every dime this record generates goes to the SFBFS. Feed the hungry, shelter the vulnerable, teach those yearning to learn."
"We're 4 guys who love rock and roll and love songs and songwriting. We pay respect to brilliant artists that have gone before. But in our own way. Our songs are influenced by whatever bubbles up from the subconscious. We give equal weight to all ideas/hooks/harmonies, regardless of which decade they harken to. We think songs are more interesting when they can be seen in different ways. We shun the tired INTRO-CHORUS-INTRO-CHORUS-LEAD-CHORUS-EXIT blueprint. We prefer freeform songs. We tried to make each song completely unique. With a totally different sound for each. Weird chords with weird changes, weird blueprints, weird harmonies and backwards leads. Happy singers singing dark songs of love lost, the costs of constant war, and a scream into the night. WAKE UP!"
Check out the album via Spotify & Soundcloud. Check out the "Cheye Calvo" video, which recently won the PureM Music Awards for Best US Music Video. The track is also being played on BBC6 currently.
