Indie Folk Duo Tall Heights At Peg Egan July 9

Tall Heights will take the stage at the Peg Egan Performing Arts Center’s Sunset Concert Series on July 9 at 7 pm. 7

It’s been half a decade since Tall Heights kicked off their career in Boston’s Faneuil Hall, busking for more than 100 days to help fund their very first EP. Paul Wright would play cello, Tim Harrington would strum the acoustic guitar, and both bandmates would sing, their voices cutting through the noise of shoppers and tourists. Since those days, the duo’s harmony-heavy indie folk have taken Tall Heights from the marketplaces of Massachusetts to stages across the country.

They’ve toured America, released the critically acclaimed album Man of Stone, and earned a spot on the same folk family tree as Simon & Garfunkel and Bon Iver. On 2015’s Holding On, Holding Out, though, the duo widens their reach significantly, beefing up their sound with electronics, synthesizers, drums loops, Casio keyboards, and plenty of shimmer and shine. It’s a record of exploration and expansion, with Tall Heights building something towering on top of their folksy foundation.

The Peg Egan Center is an outdoor amphitheater focusing on bringing Door County and its visitors some of the best folk, blues, alternative, jazz, and world music from national touring artists. In case of rain, all concerts are held at the Calvary Methodist Church 4650 Country Rd, E, Egg Harbor. Carry-ins are welcome. For more information call 920.493.5979.
