We had the pleasure of interviewing Highland Kites over Zoom video! Highland Kites started as Los Angeles native Marissa Lamar's solo project, and was a way for her to deal with the aftermath of her beating a severe case of neurologic Lyme Disease, losing much of her earlier life in the process. Music was a way to deal with not just the pain, but to help her heal and find a new purpose. Having never played or sung she started learning piano in 2014 at 26 and within 6 months played her first show. What started as just something to help her mind heal and give her an artistic outlet became an obsession and something she fell deeply in love with.She shortly after met drummer, Neil Briggs through a mutual friend. Their musical styles were very different but the contrast created a sound that they both resonated with.They have since released 4 EPs, a full length album and many singles, done 6 tours and over 100 shows. Their music has been described as “Hope Sandoval fronting Radiohead”. They have a love for adding texture to songs, and creating dreamy landscapes around brutally honest and direct lyrics.We want to hear from you!

I've shared a lot about why I think building your brand message is the best way to get a more engaged, loyal fanbase on social media. Posting meaningful, purposeful content can create all sorts of opportunities for your music to reach the ears of future fans, and it forges a connection with your audience unlike anything else. But why take my word for it, when you can hear a first-hand account from someone who just found success with the Fan Finder Program? Marissa, musician and songwriter for Highland Kites, shares with me on this episode about how her latest single streamed over 2,000 times in 48 hours (compared to the 100 total streams from her last song). She spent one weekend planning 30 days of content, using the content map and brand strategies within the Fan Finder Program, and was able to promote her single to such success that it literally did 20x better than the last song she released. I learned so much from this conversations, and I know you will too. Enjoy!

When we spoke with MARISSA LAMAR of HIGHLAND KITES, we asked her what she wanted people to come away with after they had heard the music on her band's latest release I'M NOT WEAK. To paraphrase her response, one of the points that she brought up was that she didn't want people to be brought down by her music, given the heavy themes that are on display within this mesmerizing EP. Given the execution of these songs, which recalls the haunting production and songcraft of works by DANIEL LANOIS and BRIAN ENO, it is hard for us to see the music reducing a listener to sobbing mess. We hear music that uplifts, and because of that I'M NOT WEAK is nothing short of a miracle. Music is more that just something to do for LAMAR. It was a means of survival. Music got her through the years she struggled against Lyme Disease and the struggle turned her into a songwriter with a confessional quality that is unparalleled. Damned if we can find a anything like HIGHLAND KITES in the current indie set, and that's a good thing. It makes the reward of discovering an EP like I'M NOT WEAK all the more sweeter.
