The group High Tide was formed in 1982 by a group of musicians from the Greenville, South Carolina area. In the beginning, the main focus was the three man vocal team backed by four musicians. Early on, the group became well know for their Beach Music and ability to get people up out of their seats and moving with the music. Throughout the years as new members joined the group, the band broadened its horizons and became more diverse with a wider range of music. With the large popularity of the band, came the decision to incorporate their own original music, after extensive studio time, the results were the first High Tide release, which was a combination of original and pre-recorded songs. Sales of the release were way beyond the band’s expectations and left the fans wanting more.
The current High Tide repertoire ranges from Top 40 (Pop, rock, rap) to oldies (Funk, beach, classic rock, and R&B). High Tide has always been a road band, but for the last eight years has been a house band. A decision was made recently to go back on the road. The band specializes in Weddings, Parties, Concerts, and Clubs. In the last eight year, the band has spent $100,000 in a top notch sound system and stage instruments to give the fans top quality sound. The band has also chosen their repertoire very wisely, to specialize in such a broad spectrum of functions. People at weddings are amazed when JT and Mills sing the standard love-song ballads. High Tide’s strong points are high energy dance music, textured with Ballads, beach, and classic rock.
The Band is has just released their new Cd Versatility June 18, 2008

Craig Fleming comments: A band that I am quite proud of has the # 40 song on The Smokin' 45 this month as High Tide, who is based in Liberty, S.C. (about 30 minutes from my home town!), puts "Hey Cutie" on the chart! "Hey Cutie" has been getting a tremendous amount of airplay at the beach, and it was only a matter of time before it cracked The Smokin' 45! The band also decided to send "Hey Cutie" out to the DJ's via beachmusic45's promotional CD service, and it looks like it is paying off! Amazing what a little promotion will do for a song! Look for big things from this band as after taking a hiatus from a house gig they worked for 8 years, High Tide is back and ready to rock and roll! "Hey Cutie" is available on High Tide's new CD "Versatility" which is available at www. beachmusic45store. com and will also be featured on the forthcoming KHP Music compilation "Gettin' Ready For Showtime". Way to go guys!!
Well for the month Of August, we made 6 Dee Jays list in the Beach Top 20. 5 was in North Carolina and one was in Virgina Beach. We hope we get on the main Beach Top 40 in September. 100 Dee Jays report to that. That list is based on those Dee Jays list. High Tide will be performing at OD beach club in Myrtle Beach on Aug 31 and we may perform Aug 30 also. Our CD release party will be Sept 19 in Myrtle Beach also. KHP Records is also doing a Beach Compilation that will feature "Hey Cutie" and other beach artist. It will also be featured during SOS at Myrtle Beach. Things are happening very fast. We are honored that our CD is being received so well. So far, "Hey Cutie" is being played on the radio in 11 States. We want to thank Craig Fleming for all his help with our promotions of our CD and Julian Fowler for thinking that "Hey Cutie" was good enough to go on his compilation CD. We also want to thank the 6 Dee Jays for putting us on their top 20 list.
