The High Water Marks

With a sound that captures the lo-fi giddiness of indie pop and a fuzzy feel that's one step above lo-fi hissiness, the High Water Marks are guided by the songs and playing of former Apples in Stereo member Hilarie Sidney and Palermo's Per Ole Bratset. The pair teamed to make a series of energetic albums in the 2000s before relocating to Norway. After a hiatus they returned in 2020 with Ecstasy Rhymes, an album that has the punchy sound and sunny feel of an Elephant 6 classic. Solidifying this new phase in their career, they returned in early 2022 with Proclaimer of Things, recorded in both Norway and the United States, and 2023's Your Next Wolf was another international production that captured their high spirited, rollicking pop music in its most effective form.
