Leeds, England’s Higher Power have shared an official music video for “Seamless,” the lead single off their Roadrunner Records debut LP, 27 Miles Underwater. The Mason Mercer directed video is streaming now on Higher Power’s YouTube channel with “Seamless” available on all streaming platforms. 27 Miles Underwater is set to arrive worldwide on January 24th.
Recorded with producer Gil Norton at Modern World Studios in Tetbury, England, 27 Miles Underwater follows Higher Power’s breakthrough LP, Soul Structure, which made REVOLVER’s “20 Best Albums of 2017” roundup. Pre-orders for 27 Miles Underwater are available now at all DSPs with exclusive bundles – including limited edition vinyl – available at www.higherpowerleeds.com.
Having recently wrapped a pair of performances at the 2019 Reading & Leeds Festival, Higher Power are currently on tour in North America supporting Vein and Soft Kill. The run – which also features Modern Color, Dead Heat, Silenus, and Narrow head on select dates – continues tonight, September 17th, with a performance at Denver, Colorado’s Marquis Theater [full itinerary below].

Comprised of brothers Jimmy Wizard (vocals) and Alex Wizard (drums), Louis Hardy (guitar), Max Harper (guitar), and Ethan Wilkinson (bass), Higher Power quickly established themselves as a crossover force with their self-titled three-song demo in early 2015. Bucking trends and forgoing boundaries, word of the group’s NYHC inspired grooves and positive expression quickly spread throughout England. Space to Breathe, a three-song 7-inch, followed in August 2015 stacking layers of social consciousness and progressive intellect on top of the band’s trashing compositions. Higher Power’s full-length debut, Soul Structure, arrived in 2017 to critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic, as their post-genre approach filtered hardcore through a sonic spectrum of funk, rap, rock and psychedelia. An unrelenting live act, Higher Power have been embraced for their euphoric performances on tours alongside Turnstile, Angel Du$t, and Knocked Loose.
