Hightide Blues hit the ground running in 2006 headlining over 150 shows
in their first year and sharing the stage with such national acts as
Sister Hazel, Sara Bareilles, Jason Isbell (of the Drive By Truckers),
Karl Denson Trio (KD3), Sam Thacker, Benjy Davis Project, Moses
Mayfield, Warm in the Wake, Michael Warren, the Zac Brown Band, and many
more.
Their debut album “Hightide Blues” was recorded in Nashville, TN and
consists of unique and energy-filled rock with overtones of alt-country
set over layers of acoustic and electric guitars and a hard-hitting
rhythm section. The band is made up of four college students from
Auburn, Alabama balancing finishing their degree and traveling around
the Southeast playing different cities and venues every week. The
album's sound illustrates the band’s musical influences including
artists such as Ben Harper, Ryan Adams, and the Black Crowes.
