Tall Heights released a completely independent follow-up EP, Rafters, in September 2011, and sold 700 copies in the first 7 days. While many artists in their genre have of late retreated to the wilderness to record, Tall Heights stayed in the city. These five tracks were recorded over a few sweltering months in a small bedroom of their Boston apartment with an SM58 microphone, an iMac, a guitar, a cello and their voices. And, although there was neither cabin nor lake, Rafters is already spreading across their Thoreauvian folk scene like brushfire.
