Polly High’s singer/songwriter Karen Page cannot tell a lie and it shows. Polly High’s music is sincere. These folk-indie rockers display a multitude of talent with melancholy lyrical melodies being carried off by Beatle-esque guitar hooks and backed by a classically solid rhythm section. It’s back to the basics with those melodies that crawl inside your head and swim happily around for days.
Karen began writing music in the 90’s when she traded in her drum kit for a crappy guitar. The band Polly High was formed in 2006 after Karen spent a few years playing solo around the west coast. She is joined by bassist Brooks Schaper (Amongst Us), guitar virtuoso Benjamin Brown (Blue Collar Scouts/DeHaviland), and drummer Joe Evers (Penelope Purejoy).
Due out in July is Polly High’s long awaited cd and multi-media package entitled “RUN LITTLE BOY”, with contributions from nearly 20 NW celebrities! The 7 song ep will be available beginning in August and will include some happy little candid video footage. The project is being produced by Karen Page and Rob Stroup at 8 Ball Studio in Portland.
Oh! Crazed groupie? You know, just because I asked you to sign my boobs while I unzipped your pants DOES NOT make me a crazed groupie. So...now that I'm a member of the band, does that mean I can get backstage and drink your beer?
