Artist description Simple. Solid. Funky. These three words stand as straightforward testimony to the appeal of Highwater, one of Nashville’s hottest band of rockers, whose roots run the gamut from R&B to soul to natural born rock & roll. The three words are a mantra for these four traveling minstrels, who have been busy the past three years building a reputation that stretches from the Deep South to New York City.

Press Reviews Kim Webber- Blink Magazine "Chances are you've heard of Highwater. Maybe you've seen the name around. After all, they've been playing together for four years as Highwater. Maybe you heard a couple of cuts off their successful debut release Highwater after it garnered radio play last year. Maybe you're a member of one of the most loyal legions of fans in the southeast...Highwater has played all over the south recently, including a stint opening for The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies in New York (The Wetlands) and New Jersey (Club Bene). For the benefit of those of you who haven't had a chance to see one of Nashville's tightest bands...Highwater's music is an amalgam of R&B, rock-a-billy, and southern fried funk...for future fans, be advised: PUT ON YOUR DANCIN" SHOES!..."Matthew Lawton - Album Network “Highwater has just released their debut self-titled album and it’s a non-stop rock and boogie blast! Featuring the Muscle Shoals Horns along with Peter Finney on steel guitar and dobro, Highwater delivers soulful boogie, twang, and that ever popular “tear in your beer.” Whether they wade through that swampy delta groove or strum a plaintive sad song, Highwater will keep your spirits up. Put thisCD on and let the party begin!”Kip Caven - Mojo Magazine “This is a CD sent to us from Nashville and let me tell you- THIS CD ROCKS! This is one of the best bands I have heard in a long time. If you are a Little Feat fan do not miss this band...You would swear that Lowell George climbed out of the grave to sit in with this band. Highwater is from Nashville and the story goes that they were “discovered” playing a fried chicken joint...If you can’t find this CD PLEASE let me know and I will get you in touch with someone who can get it to you!”Tom Speed - An Honest Tune "Highwater is a band that likes to boogie...these guys combine the pure element of southern style and mix it with thick swampy grooves and soulful rock-n-roll."
