Highly Suspect

Highly Suspect

HIGHLY SUSPECT IN CONCERT:Comprised of twin brothers and their best friend from childhood, Highly Suspect are a tight-knit group that deliver foot-stomping rock music in the vein of Queens Of The Stone Age and early Kings Of Leon. Fans can't get enough of energetic frontman Johnny Stevens' gritty voice and hard-driving guitar chops as the band blasts through crowd favorites like "Mom, "Bath Salts", and "Mr. Asylum" in their funk and ska-influenced progressive rock style. Highly Suspect's nonstop touring schedule in support of two excellent EPs gives ticket buyers plenty of chances to catch these party starters in concert for a fun and hard-driving night of music.

One of those bands that sounds awesome on their album but even better live!!! Johnny's voice makes you experience all the emotion in their songs while he sings to you....like he was playing just for me!! And those twins......oh boy!!! What can I say....I was hooked from the beginning!!! And it keeps getting better!

Highly Suspect puts on the most incredible show I've ever seen live and that's saying something considering I've seen them live three times. Their energy is palpable the entire show and you can't help but be captivated. Definitely catch a show if they are anywhere remotely close to where you are and you won't be disappointed. See them now before they're too famous and will be playing at huge venues.

First time seeing Highly Suspect. The band and vocals were outstanding. They had amazing energy and really got the crowd excited. In addition to the performing all the best songs from their album, they also performed a new song that sounded great. These are talented and personable musicians. I highly recommend seeing Highly Suspect!

The band stuck around after the show and met with everyone and my brother and I got all there autographs!!! Pretty awesome guys and they played their hearts out it seemed. If you have a chance check them out!

Hush List started the night off right with a great set. They're another new band I'll have to follow. Highly Suspect was amazing, the venue was great, I had no complaints. I was a little concerned about my kids being there but we had no problems. We all had a great time

Highly Suspect's performance was phenomenal. This was my first time seeing them live, and I couldn't be more pleased or impressed. Not only are they engaging and comedic, but they're excellent musicians. These guys can rock- and rock they did! Highly Suspect played every song from their debut album 'Mister Asylum' and also gave fans a treat by playing 3 or 4 songs that aren't on their album. Their hypnotic gutiar rifts, sublime bluesy sounds, and contagious energy kept the crowd begging for more. I sadly didn't stick around, but after the show they even hung out at their merch table to meet fans and sign items. I've been attending concerts for a good portion of my life, and I've never been so impressed with a band before. I highly recommend seeing Highly Suspect!

Highly Suspect is just so good that it may be the last time seeing them in small venues like the Stone Pony before they hit it really huge. The place was packed but it was a decent crowd of people. No problems. Everywhere is a good spot. I love the Pony and Highly Suspect is one of the top shows I've seen there.

This was the second time I have seen HS. The first show they were more business-like, however, it was still an incredible show due to their musicianship. This show they showed off more of their artistic side and put on a much more entertaining show. It was also great seeing them in a small venue (The Stone Pony) because they will probably be playing in a much larger venues in the future.

We drove 6 hours from western NY to come to this venue. Hands down best concert of any genre I've been to. Atmosphere was so amazingly hard core. It was perfect for me as I don't do well in huge crowds. The staff was friendly, the bands were laid back and friendly... and they gave me presents which is always a plus, lol I would definitely come back!

Highly Suspect was FANTASTIC!!! Sound and lights were excellent. Good dancing music before and in between the two bands. Sometimes the bass is too strong. We've attended a few shows here and the building seems too small for the enormous amounts of bass. Bathrooms are very clean, there is an attendant which makes a huge difference.....Thank You for that! Drinks are worthy.

Highly Suspect put on an amazing concert Saturday night! Though they didn't play a few of my favorites they did an fantastic job at song selection! They were high performance, sounded spot on and had the crowd going the entire time! If you have the chance, don't miss them! They were my breakout band from Carolina Rebellion this year and they met and exceeded my expectations!

This was a show that I was very much looking forward to as Highly Suspect brings back the real rock and roll sound that has been lacking in music for the last two decades. The venue was small but the energy level was intense, when Highly Suspect hit the stage they commanded attention with their high energy and their infectious music. Johnnie Stevens, the lead singer was simply amazing with his vocals and his very diverse guitar skills. Highly Suspect captured the attention of every genre that attended the show due to the fact that you can easily tell they are not strictly trying to be a ROCK band, they played blues, they played some punk music, even slowed it down with a ballad that was done masterfully by the Bass player RIch Meyer. I am just so impressed with this band and looking forward to hearing new music from them in the future while I will still Jam to their current and older music. Way to Rock the show boys..

The bands before Highly Suspect didn't intrigue me at all. As a lover of music I tried to keep an open mind about the music, but as a rocker I didn't care for two hours of EDM style music and then a folk band. Once Highly Suspect came out I was super excited, but then the distortion that can only be described as ear piercing. We stayed for half of their set and left. I go to a lot of shows and I've never had that much feedback continuously through the sound system. Either the sound people weren't paying attention or the ringing in my ears was just coincidental. The venue was in a basement of this building so that could have had something to do with the sound.

These guys are going to be so famous, a name everyone knows. There music is so original and no song sounds the same. Its bluesy, metal, punk, and a bit reggae with powerful lyrics that seem to be relatable to everyone. The stage presence was that of a humble band that still is there to do what they love and entertain their fans. Very high energy and fun. Rich and Ryan crowd surfed while 2 good friends played bass and drums. They also had an intermission that led us to believe the show was finished. I was like wait... that can't be the end. It really got the crowd involved, everyone was screaming "encore!" And literally went wild when they came back out.

This is was my first concert at the Newport and it was everything I expected. It's a very small venue, which SO awesome to see a big band like this at! It will most likely be the last time this band will perform there because they're getting more and more popular by the second. It's really important to get there early and wait in line if you want a good spot. We got there 2hrs early (at 5, doors opened at 7:15ish) and had first pick, pretty much, where to stand. If you're short like me (4'11") then you HAVE to get a first pick up front spot in order to see anything for these big bands.

If Highly Suspect is playing a show within 100 miles of you, you need to go to that show. They kill it every time. They love the crowd, even when they try to jump in stage. They carry with them a slightly different sound than their studio albums to freshen things up, and it sounds great. And damn dude, when they play Claudeland or Look Alive, Stay Alive, you can't help but to lose your shit. These guys are some badass sunsabitches, let's leave it at that. Go see them.

Highly Suspect is AMAZING and so very talented. Unfortunately, I had to listen to their songs on the way home from the concert to enjoy them. The 45 minute drum solo was only 5 minutes of entertainment. I felt like I was watching a jam session in someone's garage. The show was unprofessional and a waste of time in my opinion. I just want to hear their awesome songs, not random musicians. Plus their folding chair break got old. I paid my concert money to be entertained. I was entertained for 1/3 of the time. HIGHLY disappointed.

I love Highly Suspect's music but was very disappointed in their live show. They got drunk on stage and there was a span of at least 30 min or longer where they were sitting on the stage not performing any songs. There were a lot of random people on stage that were not part of the band. It was a trainwreck and a lot of people walked out before the show was over. I hope this is not how all their shows end.

Highly Suspect throws an awesome show. They perform, talk, bring the audience in the show and make it seem like your at a personal jam show. High energy and laid back at the same time. Show started around 9, I had to leave at 11:30 and they were still going... wished I could have stayed longer, but living over an hour away made that impossible. Thanks for a great show guys!
