High Mountain Breezes uses their synergy of seemingly different viewpoints, talents and experiences to create a unified and heartfelt message. Meaningful collaboration and pure unbridled fun drives the HMB Players, who started with the what they consider to be the perfect acoustic version of the song, which is then fine-tuned until it was a track close to a final master.

About High Mountain Breezes

HMB is a collection of lifelong music friends who take time out of their professional careers to come together to reconnect, share in friendship and God-given talent to create their own style of music together. In the studio, it is a very heartfelt and spiritual experience shared among friends who love what they do as opposed to a standard studio work session.

One player expressed the spirit of HMB very eloquently when he said, “The gift of being a worthy session player is two-fold: First, using one’s palette to augment something already beautiful; and second, being trusted and skilled enough to do it.”

When HMB comes together as a team, members use this sentiment for the collective whole. In a way, the HMB players are leaving their own mark on music by creating a unique legacy. When together, it is truly a collaborative effort where time stands still. Everyone from the players, the vocalist, the songwriting team, and producers contribute to their songs. When you hear one of the High Mountain Breezes’ songs, you will feel the chemistry of years of friendship paired with musical mastery achieved only through each member’s legendary skillset combined.

With overflowing talent, the High Mountain Breezes players have more offerings than their music alone. HMB offers songwriter mentoring sessions for those just starting out or those looking to take their skills to the next level. Imagine learning the do’s and don’ts on how to write a hit from the brain behind Alabama’s #1 smash Jukebox in My Mind! HMB is also available to consult on other artists’ projects, including helping with songwriter demos and artist sessions.
