High Places

Experimental Brooklyn-based duo High Places - comprised of Mary Pearson and Rob Barber - formed in 2006 and much like opposite coast friends No Age released a number of 7" EP's and split singles that were later compiled on a pre-debut album collection. In this case the say-what-you-see 03/07-09/07 was brought out by Thrill Jockey a few months ahead of the pair's self-titled full debut later in 2008.
