Long Story Short Album Release Party with Guests Mile High

Long Story Short - http://www.myspace.com/longstoryshortnz

Meet John, Bronte, Dani, Jayden & Jasmine; together they form Long Story Short - a band that has been making waves among their peers. They're an eclectic bunch comprised of a London born surf lifesaver, Aussie ex-world medal winning gymnast, a sister duo who could rival The Veronicas & a home grown Auckland drummer. With their combination of catchy tunes, great vocals and killer looks, this band has been hitting all the right notes. Formed in 2008 & boasting a sound akin to trend du jour bands like Paramore, these talented teens are charging ahead into a bright future. They recently won 2nd place at North Shore Regional Rockquest finals & were placed in the top 14 bands opening the National Finals for 2009.

Catching the lively energy of hits by bands like the Foo Fighters along with a toe tapping sound, Mile High make an effort to keep their audience entertained with high energy performances, that leaves their listeners wanting more.

Their debut single "Now" was released in April 2009 and went on to score air play on The Rock, Kiwi FM, C4 and The Zone FM . Following this success, Mile High performed at The 2010 Big Day Out, TV3's Sunrise, The Big Night In Telethon as well as The Bog Band Fest in Christchurch with The Midnight Youth and Dane Rumble. The band was a top 20 finalist in MTV's 42 Unheard competition as well as The Jim Beam Homegrown Band Search.

The band's latest release is their second single "And Again" which was produced, engineered and mastered by Andrew Buckton at Studio 203. “And Again” is a perfect snapshot of the band’s rock music roots, influenced by bands like Pearl Jam, Sparta, Led Zeppelin, and Queens of the Stone Age.
