HTW is a socio-political, world-conscious hiphop band with a strong message and a sound that's an eclectic fusion of hiphop, funk, soul, jazz and reggae.
Bio / Background
Higher Than Why began in late 2003 as a three piece based in Austin, Texas. Consisting of the formerly untapped rapping menace-to-the-powers-that-be Josh Logan (Justice) and the innovative beat making and production collaboration of Zack Logan and Steve Varner (Dr. Delivery), Higher Than Why was originally only a recording project with beats, bass lines and melodies made from computer loop sequencers. Bear vs Shark is the trio's debut, and the incendiary album is a DIY labor of love - self-recorded, produced, printed and released.
In August 2004, the group decided to take to the stage. Because both Steve and Zack have been gigging musicians for years, the trio chose to use instrumentation to recreate their electronic album for live shows. With Justice on the mic, Zack on drums, and Dr. D on bass, they then recruited keyboardist Jake Kithcart.
In terms of content, they are still a socio-political, world-conscious hiphop band.
