Brooklyn's High Places craft organic, glitchy avant-pop from shakers and rattles, bells, kalimbas and found sounds. There's a distinctly exotic tinge to their electronica, with African rhythms rubbing up against dreamlike underwater beats. They have released two albums on Thrill Jockey -- their self-titled debut in 2008, and 2011's Original Colors -- and have won acclaim from bands like Yeasayer and Dirty Projectors.
Support from two more boy-girl duos: The Hysterical Injury ( "the noise rock Carpenters") and Hesomagari, featuring Yoshino Shigihara (Zun Zun Egui) and SJ Esau.
