Toronto, Ontario band “High Flyer” can be defined as a rambunctious fender bender of alt-rock and funk. Established in 2019, they ensure upbeat infectious grooves, slick guitar licks, and neck-breaking bass lines. These four rowdy guys will have you bobbing your heads and shaking your shoulders.
The band has gigged around well-known Toronto venues, with their home base at the Dakota Tavern. In 2022 the group played The Andy Kim Christmas show in support of CAMH at Massey Hall and opened up for Barenaked Ladies on their Hometown Holidays tour across Ontario. Currently, they have two singles released, have established radio time on stations worldwide and are proud to present their first EP “Manuka” released on all platforms on October 1st, 2021.
