New Orleans heavy psych trio High Black River presents new single and lyric video »Le Bateleur«!

New Orleans, Louisiana based heavy psych trio High Black River (feat. Ana De Ferreira and Michelle Hanks from Spitfire) has released a lyric video for their second single »Le Bateleur«.

»Le Bateleur« is available now on Spotify and all major streaming platforms!

High Black River is witch doom with a heavy psych flair hailing from New Orleans, Louisiana. Formed in Fall 2022, the band embarked upon a musical exploration heavily influenced by Western esotericism, pulling inspiration from a wealth of archetypal stories covering the spectrum of shared human experience. After a year and a half, the band entered the studio in March 2024 to begin tracking the first three of five songs in the works. And in June 2024 their first single »Cosmic Child« was released.

The band debuted live July 2024 at the 15th annual New Orleans Creepy Fest and between then and September the trio played several shows with such heavy hitting bands as The Well, High Desert Queen and Year Of The Cobra. In September 2024, their second single »Le Bateleur« dropped and the band has plans for more shows out of town and state for 2025.
