The analog synth-driven solo project of Yukon Blonde frontman Jeffrey Innes, Canadian indie electro-pop outfit High Ends came to fruition in 2013 during a temporary break with his flagship band. Primarily a solo vehicle, Innes managed to recruit a number of talented musician friends for the project, including Louise Burns and New Pornographer Kathryn Calder on backup vocals, Gold & Youth's Jeff Mitchelmore on percussion, and Ladyhawk's Darcy Hancock on guitar. Innes released the first single, "The Weight," under the moniker in May, 2014, with the Dine Alone-issued full-length Super Class arriving later that October. ~ James Christopher Monger
