Soon after the group made its way to Louisiana where they have been gaining fans and focusing on their music. “Walking “ the first cut on the debut album became a quick fan favorite and had stayed in the top 40 songs on some of the college radio stations HIGHLINES was chosen as one of only fifty bands nationwide to receive Taco Bell’s 2007 “Feed The Beat!” promotion where touring bands areprovided meals for their tour.

Highlines continues to tour extensively and have always gained fans and acculates at the venues they play.Highlines will release their second CD “17 Reasons To Skip Town” in June of 2009 and it is sure to impress the labels, fans and supporters. The band worked at Nail Bender Studio’s in Louisiana to complete this latest CD and used a very hands on approach to get the sound they felt the fans will love.We all have separate, crazy, wonderfull, chaotic lives and yet we always stay on track with the help of friends, fans, opportunities and the common goal that surrounds us and that is to continue and finish what we have started. We arelearning more and more about this business, each other and own own lives everyday and realize that there is still a long road to travel, but as long as people are listening we will give all we can in the studio, on stage, as people and as a band.
