The Hightowns plus Support

The Hightowns formed through a mutual love of Everly Brothers style harmonies and story telling lyrics. Their debut album, Stories in the Walls, takes a sideways glance at the lives of others, with tales about out of work actors, jilted husbands and faded seaside towns, all underpinned by soaring violin arrangements and knowing looks.

“A beautiful release, chamber pop at its finest, with the band dovetailing perfectly on little jewels of songs that are further lifted by lyrics that are reflective, unashamedly romantic, and often funny – sitting somewhere between Noel Coward and Victoria Wood. In short: a triumph”.
