The High Tops

About Me

We believe that the energy, optimism and “swingability” of 1950’s Rock & Roll never goes out of style and we make our point by mixing 50’s (and early 60’s) classics with “retro rock” from the 1980’s (and 90’s).Our intimate Trio of “30-somethings” is perfect for private parties, outdoor festivals, restaurants, dance halls, car shows, conventions, theme weddings, diners, drive-ins and bowling alleys. For “jitterbugs” of all ages, this music will bring a smile to your face and make you want to dance!
