Higher

Cezar Girardi (vocal) and Gustavo Scaranelo (guitar) are two very experienced and respected professional musicians in the Brazilian music scene, especially in the fields of jazz and instrumental music. However, both nourish another feature in common: a passion for heavy metal.

In 1995 they founded the band Second Heaven, that unfortunately did not leave any recordings before split up two years later. The musicians then began to devote to academic studies of music, which eventually led them to other segments where they made career. But the passion for metal remained pulsating throughout this time. After a telephone conversation, they decided to meet to play and compose heavy metal again. The result? A new band: Higher!

Higher brings some rooted unique features: it was formed exclusively by the passion of musicians for heavy metal, in other words, the work is free from any commercial or marketing claim that could possibly interfere on the artistic aspect; this experience in other styles naturally gave them a truly unique musicality, full of identity, as never heard before!

Unfinished will be the task of the music critic who dares to label the band within any preexisting subsegment in heavy metal.
