 There's no way but The Highway! This indie-rock group brings the crowd to life with an energetic vibe that is hard to come by. Led Zeppelin meets the Black Keys, as their ambient vibe and guitar-driven rock sounds merge amidst unique chord progressions and catchy hooks.
Originally from Caracas, Venezuela, Daniel Tortoledo possesses strong vocals and tasteful bass lines that give this band much of their unique sound. The phenomenal drummer, Ted MacInnes, fills the sound with strong beats that keep the crowd dancing, while guitarist, Isaac Cohen's spitfire guitar licks put the listener at ease. They are a tight band with a unique style that is easy to love. The band now resides in Brooklyn, NY, where they have a continuously growing fan-base. From heavy dancing to mellow swaying, The Highway has something for everyone in the crowd. They connect with the audience through intense climaxes and soothing breakdowns. The Highway released their debut album, Forest People, in September 2010, which was awarded Album of the Month, by Deli Magazine New England. Although their album is one that you'll have on repeat for months, the essence of The Highway is truly captured at their live shows. The Highway performance is more than just a concert, but an uplifting and soulful experience. Press The Deli New England "The raw emotionality of the record is worth noting because it's a field in which psychedelically-minded rock 'n roll rarely succeeds. But it's rock and roll, after all, so fear not if you just want to put your fist in the air - there's attitude in abundance, sharp and edgy soloing, inspired rhythm changes; hell, there's even a sing-along drum-and-vocal break.”- Cullen Corley Boston Band Crush “The Highway is a full-featured band and they know not only how to fill up their own space, but how to stay out of each others’ way. A standout performance on the organ adds an important level of texture to “Set Me Free” - its whirring wheels circle at the top of the octave, carving out designs in the song’s roof while the guitars churn down below.” The Weekly Dig “The local trio specializes in a modern psych rock that couples vintage rock sensibilities with skilled musicianship, leaving audiences with a palatable sound reminiscent of the classic rock standards we've come to accept as the definition of "good."
