If you throw a little Zep and a little Rush in a stew pot; mix in some Adele and the Stones and turn up the heat you get High Street. The power blues-rock quintet is based on Chicago’s north shore and formed in an attic rehearsal space in the fall of 2007. Launching as a cover band playing parties and charity events, this hard working young group introduced the world to their original sound with the release of their first EP “Out of the Attic” in spring 2011. Fully recorded on analog tape, they explored a range of different influences and delivered a raw powerful punch reminding us that rock is alive and well. Their highly anticipated follow up EP “Nocturnal” is set for release in the spring 2012 and have several gigs lined up in the Spring and Summer.

Teenagers’ Rock Band Performs on Internet Radio
The band known as High Street, ages 12-15, developed their sound in the attic of two members’ home in Winnetka.
Tucked neatly inside an attic nook, five teenagers rehearse their latest songs for an upcoming album. High Street, a rock band formed in 2007, is comprised of four boys and one girl, all with one goal in mind: to compose and record music.

MUSKEGON — Summer Celebration officials reported that 13,000 people attended last night’s show with heavy-metal bands Cinderella and Jackyl. That’s the largest number so far for this year’s event.

“It was fun!” said [...]
