"High in the 80's" .....CT's hottest 80's cover band playing iconic, high-energy, danceable, classic hits from the greatest decade in music.
UPDATE: I put this band on hiatus over a year ago after playing out all around CT for several years. We have a website and following on FB, as well as continuous inquiries from previous venues and private parties wanting to know if we are available. Things in my life have settled and I'm thinking it may be time to revive this project. Let me know if this sounds like something you'd be interested in. Practice space in Cheshire with full backline and PA. If you're a serious player, this will be an easy band to reboot once we finalize the lineup.
We have already been playing out at several great local bars around central CT, with long term goal of booking fairs, festivals, casinos, private parties, etc. We took the "Covid Time Out" as an opportunity to freshen up our set list and are ready to go !
