SINGLE RELEASE - HUMMINGBIRD
The words of Hummingbird came to Lauren whilst she was driving through the Dorset countryside. The lyrics hounded her with so much persistence that she had to pull over next to the monolithic Cerne Abbas giant to scribble them down, struggling to keep up with the current of them coming to her.
When she read over what she had written she realised that the lyrics were in essence of her favourite Frida Khalo painting Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird and were bringing her a message she needed to hear.
Spooky, yet beautiful, it has a Parisian timbre to it that would not sound out of place busked on the cobblestones of Montmartre.

With a psychedelic folk sound combining 60’s folk revival influence with trip hop, dub, and blues, their eclectic sets are at times gentle and soothing and at other times it will bash you in the face with guitar solos, dubby bass, and colourful drums. Led by the mellifluous harmonies of besties Lauren and Lu; High Shelf Remedy is quirky, fun, and slightly eccentric yet at the same time subtle and chic.
This melting pot gives High Shelf Remedy their own uniquely blended multi-genre concoction of carnivalesque sound.
Often danceable, always sing-along-able High Shelf Remedy have dazzled a wide range of audiences from festival crowds and music venues to community events.
