“The Bama boys' sound is everything you ever liked about The Black Crowes, Ryan Adams, Lynyrd Skynyrd et al, with an alarming immediacy of youth and young manhood.” –Metromix Atlanta

“..a unique sound that brings something different to the festival. They've got strong fan bases, and they'll keep going after Bonnaroo.” -Creative Loafing
Hightide Blues took the stage for the first time in 2006 and has been gracing hundreds of stages for thousands of fans ever since. Their sound is a throw back to southern rock with a modern twist and an original delivery that's in a category of it's own. With their high-energy performances and huge fan base it's no surprise that Hightide Blues has shared the stage with national acts such as Sara Bareilles, Zac Brown Band, Jason Isbell, Donavon Frankenreiter, Sister Hazel, The Whigs, JJ Grey & Mofro, Graham Colton, Matt Costa, Karl Denson, and many more.
Their delivery of acoustic and electric guitars with a hard-hitting rhythm section has lead to sold out shows all over the Southeast and won't be stopping there. Hightide Blues played Bonnaroo 2008, and are expanding their touring with shows all over the US of A.
In February 2008 Hightide Blues recorded their second EP "Love Come Easy" with producer Richard McLaurin at House of David Studios in Nashville, where music legends Elvis, Neil Young, B.B. King, Joe Cocker, and Roy Orbison recorded some of the most influential albums in music history. The highly anticipated "Love Come Easy" is generating excitement from fans and major record labels alike. Being labeled the fastest up and coming band in the Southeast, Hightide Blues is following in the footsteps of the many music legends who graced the very same studio, and anything is possible for this band as they tour the country picking up momentum and fans along the way.
