High aura'd is Massachusetts based John Kolodij. Herein, he explores sound, volume and depth.Forged in the outer rings of Boston in 2009, High Aura'd was born of a mutual respect for what had come before and a longing for a timely future. Influenced as much by Richard Serra and Robert Smithson, Jarmusch and Jodorowsky as Loren Connors and Lichens, he set foot on a path of enlightenment through self exploration and innovation; trying to capture space, time, and raw emotion. Guitars of all sorts, acoustic,electric, pedal steel, field recordings are utilized.
High aura'd has shared the stage with Old Man Gloom,Loren Connors, Sutekh Hexen, Barn Owl, The Body, Deaf Center, Work/Death, Xela, & Scott Tuma, among many others. Releases include Dusk Latitudes, a split with Andre Foisy of Locrian on Stunned Records, Third Life a split with Xela on Sweat Lodge Guru, Mooncusser on Los Discos Enfantasmes & Yldemir, and Sanguine Futures on Bathetic Records
The video for High aurad's "Remain in Light" was edited from scans of 16mm film shot between 2011 - 2013 in Providence RI. These films are part of an ongoing documentation of a local snail colony and will be used in upcoming live collaborations between The Magical Approach and High aura'd. The song "Remain in Light" was recorded by Ken Linehan in Providence, RI and features guest vocals by Glenna Van Nostrand (Omnivore - Feeding Tube Records)
Edition run of 250 copies on the vinyl format on double mint green vinyl.

It fills me with some kind of intangible, powerful, regressive emotion from the very first note to the very last. I was deeply moved by this record...it's a real treasure. Feels like being back home, in a way that's above being good or bad. thank you for this work Collin Loveall
