High. recently shared  “Catcher,” the track, is  off their forthcoming EP, Come Back Down, dropping on vinyl and digitally on January 24, 2025 via Kanine Records, the track is accompanied by a  music video directed by bassist Bridget Bakie and starring drummer Jack Miller. “I came to the band with the structure chords and bassline of this song, I am very attached to the music personally. Then, Christian wrote lyrics over it that have massive significance to him,” says Bakie. “’Catcher’ explores the depths of grief and the unwavering hope that binds us to those we’ve lost,” adds lead vocalist Christian Castan.

The official music video for “Catcher” was filmed in New Jersey by Bakie’s brother Max Bakie and edited by Shower Curtain’s Victoria Winter. It feels like an old picturesque memory, enveloping the viewer in a warm hug, eliciting nostalgia for a river you’ve never rowed down. On directing the video, Bakie says, “I felt I should make the music video because I know the source of the lyrics so closely, but they still aren’t my own. I used the boat as a metaphor for staying afloat through grief, while still moving and trying to find peace. The vast lake and the change of seasons are also a part of that. I tried to show the combination of pain and peace that this song holds.”
