cA"',N8!5 lTPo2-j/eK Since their inception, High Places have created a signature
88}c+V+N! sound out of using bass-heavy yet crisp beats, lilting vocal
o #{D;' melodies and syncopated rhythmic lines performed on folk
;$@7i L percussion instruments, guitar duets turned into treated
XM3N>OR. samples, and percussive lines created from the manipulation of
@ .fuR#
household objects. The songwriting is expansive and fluid, all
e*uaxh +7 the while managing to be concise. High Places gravitate toward
irCS}Dbw the organic over the electronic, and that natural aesthetic

AiSO|!<.N lhTjG,U= High Places' self-titled debut was recorded by the band's Rob
)W'l^R4W Barber and Mary Pearson in their apartment in Brooklyn's Fort
F\+wM*:U Greene neighborhood. They employed a wide variety of

# instruments to make this album, ranging from the more
_`WbR&d2Id traditional: 12 string guitar, banjo, shakers and rattles,
#d%'BUde bass, bells and Kalimba; to the inventive: plastic bags,
fGJ PZe mixing bowls, wood blocks and other common household objects.
k
oo`JHC The album has a contemplative and organic lyrical tone
SF 61 rm emphasized by the themes of goodness manifested in nature,
.a g4i;hS8 hardship and wonder as necessities to human existence and
i 8I%}8 growth. Additionally, the idea of maturation and development
;HM&
":7 is further accented through the recurring mention of trees and
