About Me

HighBall is a power rock with punk influences band based out of Chicago. Formed in October 1999, the trio started out in the depths of a Chicago basement. HighBall quickly began creating original songs containing lyrics from everyday life, adventures, relationships and the daily 9 to 5 grind. HighBall knew they had an edge to their music often being compared to sounds of local Chicago acts such as Screeching Weasel and The Methadones with a mix of Green Day and The Ramones. HighBall continues redefining rock music and has an onstage energy and presence that is matched only by their quick and punchy power chord sound - the style of music to which great rock legends owe their success.
