High5sandHellYeahs
Band Story
High 5’s and Hell Yeahs is a rock 'n' roll band formed in Morgantown in late 2007. Consisting of members from past bands across the state, they all came together in Motown to start rocking.
Scott was previously in Bruce Lee Handjob, while Adam played in New Clear Future and Bruce Lee Handjob from down south. Nate was in The Premature Ejaculators, The Slow Boys, and The Flying Hellfish, to name a few. Brian was the last drummer for Motown locals Truck Grind Your Face.
Initially jamming at the old Hellfish house in Westover, they started landing shows with The Flying Hellfish and other local bands that played at 123 Pleasant St. From there, they performed at 123 Pleasant St. and other venues alongside local acts, touring bands, and even a band from Japan.
In August 2008, Nate took a job in Maryland that he couldn't refuse, but that hasn’t impacted the band. Currently, Scott, Adam, and Brian jam regularly in South Park, and whenever Nate visits, they all get together.
All studio recordings were done at the Hellfish house back in March 2008 using a Fostex Digital 8-Track. The live recordings were captured in the summer of 2008 at 123 Pleasant St. A self-titled EP was recorded with Jon Cavendish at Bassmint Studios on July 17-18, 2009, in Charleston, WV. The EP is scheduled for release in late August or early September.
