The HIGH Council

About Me

The High Council are a weed inspired groove metal band that hail from the great city of Indianapolis.The band consists of 5 members:Dave Pearson-BassClint Bailey-DrumsBryan Parmer-Guitar/VocalsDerek Barr -lead guitarThomas Heddrick-VocalsTHC play in a style all their own. No need for choruses of silly breakdowns. We play in a old-school style of pure mosh and groove. We let the music do all the talking.Please take the time to look us up on youtube.com and myspace.THC were formed in early 2002 by Dave Pearson and Bryan Parmer. However, the bands roots go back even further. Parmer and Pearson came up through the scene and became members of the Indiana thrash legends, DROP DEAD. DD disbanded in 1994 leaving many songs in limbo. P & P decided to revive some of these songs under a new banner, The HIGH Council.The original line-up consisted of Parmer, Pearson, Guitarist Rob Collins and drummer Dusty Plymate. The band then decided to hire Vocalist, Thomas Hedrick, to fill the empty vocal position. Hedrick was a former bandmate of Pearsons, back in 1990.The band lost Plymate to substance abuse and later parted ways with Collins. The band then turned to long time friend Jay Williams to fill the drum void. Williams stepped in on short notice,and his contribution during this time is greatly appreciated. The band also hired on Lead Guitarist Derrick Barr, also a former bandmate of Hedrick and Pearson. With the drummer position open, the band hired Drummer Clint Bailey. Clint's hard hitting style, ideas and enthusiasm has added a great deal to this band.THC are just released their new cd, "Hostage to the Devil," out on Rolling Tray Records. A new dvd is in the works and new t-shirts are done. So get your boots on, roll a fattie and come see THE HIGH COUNCIL live.................. purethcmetal.com
