The High Hawks
Performing 2 sets on Thursday, June 27th (Late Night on the Backwoods Stage)
The High Hawks are a group of musical friends who hail from various jam and Americana bands: Vince Herman, frontman and festival ring leader from Leftover Salmon; Tim Carbone, ace fiddler and multi-instrumentalist from Railroad Earth; Adam Greuel, ring leader and guitarist from Horseshoes & Hand Grenades; Chad Staehly, keyboardist from Hard Working Americans; Brian Adams bassist for DeadPhish Orchestra; and Will Trask, drummer from Great American Taxi. The six musicians/raconteurs were looking for a way to play music together, so they formed The High Hawks in 2019 and released their eponymous debut in 2021. “We have a real common musical bond, and we just wanted to find a reason to hang out as birds of a feather and play tunes with each other,” Herman explains. The band will release its second full length album, Mother Nature’s Show, on February 16, 2024, via indie roots label LoHi Records.
