High Sea is Rochester, New York native and current Boston resident Cameron Potter, whose utterly amazing tune “Don’t Tempt Me” literally caught me off guard last night with its slow-burning, folkish rhythm section and those mildly aching, distant and washed-out layers of vocalization, subtly raising to an almost climactic finale that’s yet never quite reaching the top. Hence reminiscent of a sonic Sisyphus, if you like.
