Same Height Relation

by Hector On Stilts

supported by

Peter Yost I grew up listening to this album, so I may be biased. But every time I re-listen I am reminded how good it really is. This album is, to use a cliche phrase, a true hidden gem. Favorite track: La Dee Da.

about

Before they were Colwell, Jeb and Clayton were dual frontmen of Hector On Stilts. Always handsome tippers, they tasted the wine first and arrived at shows in their very own stately limousine. If their ride is allegory for the band's suburban style and wholesome sound, the intensely melodic pop of their sophomore release, "Same Height Relation," is proof. Produced by Grammy-nominee, Andres Levin, of Afro-Cuban ensemble, Yerba Buena, "Same Height Relation" cruises through cinematic anti-epics ("Winterland," "Rhyme Like Me"); bittersweet alt-pop ("Heart In Your Hand," "Tongue-Tied") and salsa-spiced New Wave ("Annie," "Squares Into Circles"). Cousins Jeb and Clayton Colwell harmonize with the clarity and conviction of taller Everly Brothers and the band's enigmatic humor fuels a live show that's part rock, part discotheque, and just a hair 80's prom.
