I've been listening to Hightide Blues "Dreamin' Alone" off Love Come Easy for days, and I can't get that tune out of my head. I struggle to put them into a niche because they just play good Rock-N-Roll. Southern Style. "Dreamin' Alone" is one of those songs that gets better everytime you listen to it. But don't let the laid back vibe of "Dreamin' Alone" fool you. These guys ROCK.
Love Come Easy is one of those CDs you can listen to for years.
Don't just take my word for how good Hightide Blues are:
"Yesterday afternoon I caught the end of a set from an Atlanta-based
band called Hightide Blues, who play a rollicking, jangly, southern
brand of rock n’ roll. The band came to Bonnaroo after winning first
prize in a radio contest, and they were like kids in a candy shop,
jumping around stage and grinning from ear to ear. This sort of
enthusiasm is refreshing after seeing a bunch of shows from more
established artists, and can be powerful stuff. Best of luck to them." -

Here's Hightide Blues' "Official" bio
Hightide Blues took the stage for the first time in 2006 and has
been gracing hundreds of stages for thousands of fans ever since.
Their sound is a throw back to southern rock with a modern twist
and an original delivery that's in a category of its own. With their
high-energy performances and huge fan base it's no surprise that
Hightide Blues has shared the stage with national acts such as
Sara Bareilles, Graham Colton, Jason Isbell, Matt Costa,
Donavon Frankenreiter, Sister Hazel, The Whigs, Dead
Confederate, Karl Denson, and many more.
Their delivery of acoustic and electric guitars with a hard-hitting
rhythm section has lead to sold out shows all over the Southeast
and won't be stopping there. Hightide Blues played Bonnaroo
2008 and are expanding their touring with shows throughout the
Midwest and up the East Coast.
In January 2008 Hightide Blues signed with Atlanta-based Bowe
Inc for management. In February 2008 Hightide Blues recorded
their second EP "Love Come Easy" with producer Richard
McLaurin at House of David Studios in Nashville, where music
legends Elvis, Neil Young, B.B. King, Joe Cocker, and Roy
Orbison recorded some of the most influential albums in music
history. The highly anticipated "Love Come Easy" is generating
excitement from fans and major record labels alike. Being labeled
the fastest up and coming band in the Southeast, Hightide Blues
is following in the footsteps of the many music legends who
graced the very same studio, and anything is possible for this
band as they tour the country picking up momentum and fans
along the way.

Hollywood Ending the newest release from Age Of Daze was released in the winter of 2007!
Afflicted is the band’s first single to be released on traditional radio in Canada and on Sirius satellite radio in the US.
Age Of Daze Hollywood Ending Surely On Sirius Radio
Age of Daze have made themselves quite at home on Sirius Octane’s Top 20 Rock Charts, duelling with the likes of 3 Doors Down, Puddle of Mudd, Seether and Chevelle for most played and most requested song with incredible ease – like they were born to be there (and quite frankly, we think they were). Again, not an insignificant accomplishment for an indie band from somewhere.up.there.north.of.the.border. Even band members agree they’re not the type of band you’d expect from “out east.” The Band has managed to garner a loyal fans around the world - from New Zealand to Italy, from Portland to England, and every state in the mighty US.
Age Of Daze - Talent Behind it
But the one thing that really makes your head spin about this album is the talent behind it, and the focus of the band members. With dig deep, passionate vocals, the power of three rockin’ guitars, heavy bass and the craziest @%! drummer relentlessly thrashing his skins (not to mention the sweat flying around on stage) - they’re the real deal. They’re stoked and they’re in it to win it. Says lead vocalist Tim Morrison, “you gotta go big or go home” – full stop.
