Even in your hometown, there’s always one club that feels just right every time. For Head Held High, The Rock Island Brewing Company is that place. It doesn’t hurt that bassist Steve Krug and guitarist Ian Bishop are lifelong Rock Towners and frontman Jeffrey Loder lives about a block from the historic local music venue. There’s nothing like a RIBCO show. The atmosphere, the friends, the bartenders, the sound, the room… it’s always great. That’s why the band is always so thrilled to play there. So it is with great excitement they announce their return home on April 23.

Supporting HHH will be The Blushing Gun and the juggernaut known as The Post Mortems. It’s HHH’s first time with The Blushing Gun and the band is really looking forward to sharing the stage with some of Peoria’s best. As for The Post Mortems, if you haven’t seen this rock bass and drums tour de force then you clearly don’t even like music. It’s going to be a great night of local and regional bands so let’s make this a big one. Tell your friends there’s a party in The District on April 23. See you there.

Mustache Blast!

Last night Head Held High performed at the The Mustache Bash, a party and concert to raise funds for a full length version of ‘The Mustache Movie.’ It was a blast and a great time was had by everyone involved! It looked like the band particularly enjoyed the taco bar and the photo booth. The band played a set of tunes that included one of the pieces written by Jeff for the movie entitled, “Load My Gun.” The place was packed and the crowd was ready for a great time and a funny movie, and they were not disappointed. The next local showing of ‘The Mustache Movie’ will be March 31 at The Establishment Theatre.

In other live performance news, Head Held High will be returning home to their favorite spot The Rock Island Brewing Company very soon. More details to come in the upcoming week. Happy spring everyone!

you’ve likely been naughty, but we’re going to give you something anyway. enjoy our first full length, ‘moments that make us,’ in the high quality download format of your choice for free. we only ask for an email address. we’ll likely never even use it, and we won’t give it to anyone. make up a fake hotmail or something if you’re really freaked about it. it’s just so we can send you a message if we release any new music. free download of ‘moments’ is a limited time offer, while supplies last.

our current release, ‘i know i’m wrong,’ is also available for a minimum of just $5 (choose your own price min. $5), which is $4.99 off the iTunes price.

“goodbye, beautiful” remains available as a free, high quality audio download.

thanks for listening.
