Combining bouncy rhythms, Byrds-derived jangle, and gentle, Peter & Gordon-like harmonies, Glaswegian indie pop duo U.S. Highball emerged from the ashes of the Pooches in 2017. They made their full-length debut with Great Record in 2019. Continuing to keep the majority of their songs under two minutes in length, they returned a year later with Up to High Doh before upgrading home-recording gear (and slightly expanding track times) for 2022's A Parkhead Cross of the Mind.
