New song from High Dive available

Posted by Loren on December 14, 2011

No Idea Records is offering up free download of "Tennessee" from recent signees High Dive. High Dive is a three-piece queercore band including Ryan Woods of Defiance, Ohio.

The band's debut will be released on Dec. 14, 2011 on No Idea and was recorded in Bloomington, IN with Mike Bridavsky. Woods also offered the following details on the band's formation:

For years, Theo Hilton (Defiance, Ohio + Nana Grizol) and I had found it difficult to talk about the issues of being queer in our songs. It was something that was really important to us. Toby Foster seemed to have a real strength for expressing his feelings on those topics with his music. We had known Nick Romy for years and as soon as we played the few songs we had already written, it seemed to click into place. We all found a greater voice for speaking about our experiences being queer, while being influenced and excited by the energy of some of our good friends -- three piece pop-punk bands like Songs for Moms, The Max Levine Ensemble, Delay and Vacation.

The band has announced a 20 date tour below.
