The High Span is a musical project based in Rochester, Kent and features three experienced, yet unjaded, musical souls in Kevin Younger (of Armitage Shanks, Ye Ascoyne d'Ascoynes, Subway Sect, Baby Birkin, The Speed of Sound and others), Mark Aitken (of Ye Ascoyne d'Ascoynes, The Men From Memphis, Bob Collins & The Full Nelson, These Guilty Men and others) and Jimmy Moore (of Pod, One Free Fall and revered Canadian alt-rockers Rusty). Sarah Post also joins them on backing vocals on the album and at live shows too. The High Span unleashed their 'Quirky Miniboss Squad' EP in August of 2020 (yeah, that year), and managed to grab attention from press and public alike, selected as one of Record Collector's singles of the year. The High Span's special blend is one of DIY post-pop jangle and edgier experimental sounds, of lyric-driven guitar-pop and English awkwardness. It's been described as 'sort of suburban Jake Thackray meets Stereolab.' The debut long player from The High Span, these thirteen tracks provide a good insight into their buttoned down hive mind, and features some current live favourites, including their take on Brian Protheroe's 'Pinball.' The album also includes contributions from Chris de Coulon Berthoud (velophone), Noeleen Beedle (violin) and The Claim's David Read (acoustic guitar). Limited to 300 hand-numbered copies.
Also available: THE HIGH SPAN (CD).
