:qI myaGQ py)V7*CgH Since their inception, High Places have created a signature
pxP7yJL` sound out of using bass-heavy yet crisp beats, lilting vocal
] $5r h8 melodies and syncopated rhythmic lines performed on folk
@%RDw*L( percussion instruments, guitar duets turned into treated
~,ac{%8x samples, and percussive lines created from the manipulation of
%e3lb<sv6 household objects. The songwriting is expansive and fluid, all
+^`c"qJo the while managing to be concise. High Places gravitate toward
3?2;z+cz*u the organic over the electronic, and that natural aesthetic

<n0-zCf }Za[<t BWS High Places' self-titled debut was recorded by the band's Rob
3wD6,x-e Barber and Mary Pearson in their apartment in Brooklyn's Fort
?onZ:s2 Greene neighborhood. They employed a wide variety of
T1D7H~\lG instruments to make this album, ranging from the more
N!hp^V<7 traditional: 12 string guitar, banjo, shakers and rattles,
zVp|%& bass, bells and Kalimba; to the inventive: plastic bags,

a
"8/y4Y hardship and wonder as necessities to human existence and
o6'`W2P growth. Additionally, the idea of maturation and development
