Highly Suspect, an American rock band originating from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, was formed in 2009. The band initially started as a cover band, performing songs by artists such as Sublime, Jimi Hendrix, and Pink Floyd in local bars across the Cape Cod area. The founding members include twin brothers Rich Meyer (bass and backing vocals) and Ryan Meyer (drums and backing vocals), alongside Johnny Stevens (guitar and lead vocals). All members are graduates of Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School in South Yarmouth, Massachusetts. Their early years saw them release several EPs, including “First Offense” in 2009, “The Gang Lion EP” in 2010, “The Worst Humans” in 2012, and “Black Ocean” in 2013, with some of these tracks later rerecorded for their self-titled compilation album in 2011.
In 2015, Highly Suspect released their debut studio album, “Mister Asylum,” via 300 Entertainment. This album marked a significant turning point, earning them nominations for Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song (for “Lydia”) at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards. The single “Lydia” peaked at number 4 on the US Mainstream Rock Songs chart. Following this success, their second studio album, “The Boy Who Died Wolf,” was released in 2016, featuring the chart-topping single “My Name Is Human,” which reached number 1 on the Billboard US Mainstream Rock Songs chart and garnered another Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song. The band continued to evolve its sound with subsequent albums, “MCID” (2019) and “The Midnight Demon Club” (2022), which explored elements of hip hop, pop, and electropop.
Their recent fifth full-length album, “As Above, So Below,” released on July 19, 2024, further cemented their position in the rock music scene. Highly Suspect has Toured extensively, sharing stages with notable bands such as Deftones, Chevelle, Halestorm, and Catfish and the Bottlemen, and performing at venues like The Fillmore, Toad’s Place, and Brooklyn Steel. The band’s consistent releases and touring schedule demonstrate their dedication to their craft, establishing them as a prominent and adaptable force in the rock genre.
