The High Nines are an alternative indie rock band from the North West of England drawing influences from the likes of The Verve, The Music, and The Stone Roses.
‘Walrus Bar’, released May 2025, got to number 6 in the iTunes Alternative Chart.
Their self-titled debut album, self-funded and independently recorded, produced and mixed, was released October 2025.
"This debut isn’t just a strong start. It’s the kind of record that could cement The High Nines as one of the most important new bands in the UK — a group with the songs, swagger and soul to step up from sticky-floored clubs to the festival main stages." - This Is The Music Blog
"If this is only their first swing, then the rest of the indie scene might want to start stretching before they try to keep up." - Manchester Music Group
