About
THE HIGH AND MIGHTIES is a reggae influenced rock band from Chapel Hill, NC composed of players from various groups and ensembles that have been performing in the southeast for the last decade. They strive to create an atmosphere where we all celebrate the experience of the human situation. The inspiration for their material comes from friends, family and their own bands' history. With the sweet overshadowing bitter, their music deals with life, relationships and the pursuit of ever eluding happiness.
A calculated turnaround by Belk in early 2006 - from being a "Sublime" cover band to only performing original material - coupled with a name change gave birth to a family of friends dubbed “The High & Mighties”. After cleaning up their act the new group is fresh out of the studio with the Evolution EP. While pushing their original chilled-out good time message of summertime romance they have won attention and approval throughout the inner workings of the music industry. Their recent signing to the well supported EchoMix Records promises big year of touring, recording and various appearances on the airwaves and in the press.
Singer/Guitarist Mark Belk’s songs inspired by the groups troubled past and boughts of failed “true love” sit well with his fan-base who appreciate The High & Mighties' slickly-produced earworms. Belk has been a reliable face as bartender at the premiere hot spot Top Of The Hill in Chapel Hill, NC. As he traveled the world studying guitar and writing, Belk was blessed by discovering he possessed an inner talent for the envied ability to convey easily relatable story lines penned for the masses. He often brings to life through his reggae-laced rock tunes the “late-nights” in Collegetown, USA. As the future looks bright with instant college radio hits like “Candy Jar” and “Turn The Lights Down Low” The High & Mighties are entering a new era of luck and success. The High And Mighties will hit the road to give something back their newly won fans and plan a full-length follow-up to their Evolution EP in early 2009.
