The High Crest at The Goldfinch Room

Back to Events

The High Crest music is a blend of dueling guitars and powerful harmonies infused with soulful harmonica, resonator guitar and the groove of djembe hand drum.  Featuring Kat Darling on vocals, guitar and djembe and Aaron Earl Short on vocals, guitar, Dobro and harmonica, their roots Americana sound is in essence of Johnny Cash & June Carter, Shovels & Rope, Jason Isabell & Amanda Shires and Brandi Carlile. The songs lead into shared storytelling and invite humor, reflection and camaraderie.
