Emerging in 2023 from Fort Wayne IN, United States, The High Freqs blends indie rock, indie pop and folk into a genre-defying sound. The High Freqs are a five-piece indie folk rock band from Fort Wayne IN, that mixes big melodies with an early ’90s college rock vibe. Consisting of Adam Baker (guitar, vocals, mandolin), Amy Laatsch (keys, vocals), Topher Beyer (guitar, vocals), Isaiah Laatsch (drums), and Chris Olry (bass), The High Freqs bring to mind the folkier side of indie rock.
