The Band High Noon rock the stage at BottleRock amid their EP release

June 1, 2023

One thing I love about BottleRock is that we get to check out new bands. This year one of the bands that stood out for us was, The Band High Noon. They kicked off the festival with the first set on Friday at the Truly stage and we were right there to catch it all. They were also one of BottleRock’s Featured Emerging Artist. Guitarist Ian Devereux commented about their upcoming performance, So stoked to be playing Bottlerock this year. We’re sharing a stage with some of the bands that we credit as our primary influences like the Red Hot Chili Peppers. That kind of thing still feels like living a dream sometimes. And to be featured as one of the Bottlerock 2023 Emerging Artists is a total honor. We get to kick the festival off as the crowds pour into this amazing festival, filled with music-lovers, killer food and wine, and a vibe that is all about acceptance and joy… man… we are grateful.

May 27, 2021

During these difficult Covid and lockdown times, music has been the one thing to keep us going and moving forward.

Over the years, their music and shows have satisfied our intense need for Rock n Roll. As we waited for their new release in hopes of another “Highway Tune” or “Safari Song” to whisk us away into rock abyss, we were teased with music that was definitely of a different style. With each new prerelease, we could sense that with the arrival of The Battle of Garden’s [Read More]
