High South - Now (2013)

The sound is called Westcoast, and it's timelessness that fascinates artists like Dan Fogelberg and bands like Doobie Brothers, America and the Eagles. The magic that lies in these songs has never been crushed between fads and zeitgeist.

The band High South, consisting of the four American thoroughbred musicians Jamey Garner (41), Dillon Dixon (44), Marc Copely (41) and youngster Kevin Campos (25) take up exactly this spirit. With their debut album Now they deliver an absolutely coherent album, which is calm, super nice and casual. 15 lovingly produced tracks that reveal their hit potential when you listen to them for the first time. Titles like “What About Now”, for example: The straight song is a classic West Coast rocker with the exemplary sophisticated High South vocals.
Another musical highlight of the album is undoubtedly the ballad-like anthem “All You Ever Needed”, the extremely casual “Sweet Simplicity” or the dreamy “One Night At A Time”. And so one could definitely list another 11 titles ... High South are a real highlight.
