High Rise are a five piece Melodic Metalcore/Post-Hardcore band from SW London with a mix of heavy guitar riffs and catchy chorus melodies. Originally formed in 2011 at Kingston College. They racked up an early backlog of fifty shows in their first four months and they sold out their first ever headline show in the first month, the band soon made a name for themselves in the local area. High Rise then took an indefinite hiatus in 2012.
They rose from the ashes in 2014 and took it to the next level with another sold out headline show, a headline show in Aberdeen which saw some interest from local press ‘The Aberdeen Evening Express’. The band continued their journey playing show after show around the UK, drawing crowds in Brighton while supporting, High Hopes. The band have plans to release their debut EP ‘Tides Will Take You’ along with the single & music video ‘Memories’ in February/March 2015 on their debut UK tour.
