Mild High Club is an American psychedelic pop group, led by the musician Alexander Brettin.[1]

History

Brettin grew up in the Midwest, playing flute in his school band.[2] He majored in jazz studies at Columbia College in Chicago, and started Mild High Club in 2013.[3] Brettin worked on Mild High Club's first album, Timeline, for almost three years until its release in 2015.[4]

His sophomore LP, Skiptracing, was released in 2016. Pitchfork reviewed the album, stating Skiptracing is an improvement from Timeline, where "a more confident artist emerges with a fuller vision and voice."[5]

On July 27, 2021, after nearly five years of waiting, Mild High Club's new album was announced, named Going, Going, Gone. This announcement was accompanied by a single from said album, "Me Myself and Dollar Hell". It was released on September 17, 2021.[6]

"Homage", from the album Skiptracing, was certified Gold by RIAA in 2022.[7]
