RSD 2018 The High were formed in Manchester in 1989 by Andy Couzens ( ex Stone Roses ) John Matthews, Chris Goodwin and Simon Davies. They signed to London Records after only one gig. Their highly acclaimed debut album Somewhere Soon released in 1990 received rave reviews. “ In brief, Somewhere Soon is a very effective record, expertly executed and completely Addictive. The dogs bollocks. I hope they become massive”. ( 9/10) Jack Barron NME. Combining 60s influenced pop with psychedelic guitar, The High had 3 minor Uk chart singles before hitting the top 30 with the re-vamped infectious Box Set Go. The band split in 1993 and reformed in 2015 with Tony Meehan replacing Simon Davies and Jack Couzens taking over from Chris Goodwin on drums. Scott Parkinson has since replaced Jack Couzens. Say It Now was written in the early nineties after the release of Somewhere Soon. Although it was a popular live track it was only ever recorded as a demo. This track never appeared on their much sort after second album HYPE due to the band thinking it didnt quite fit . When The High reformed In 2015, Say It Now was back in the live set and re-recorded in 2018. Sugarpuff was recorded in 2015. 25 years later The High are back with more expertly crafted guitar chime pop. 500 only for UK RSD
