Mild High Club is a psychedelic jazz-pop band helmed by Alexander Brettin, a Los Angeles-based musician who originally hailed from Chicago. The band's sound is pleasantly woozy and laid-back, but shows a subtle attention to detail without being excessive or indulgent. Brettin began working on Mild High Club material in 2012 by himself, using guitars, keyboards, computers, and a four-track recorder, and shuttling between Chicago, Baltimore, and Los Angeles. Along the way, he met several musicians across the nation who contributed to his album and backed him up during live gigs.


Mild High Club signed to Stones Throw in 2014, and a 7" single, "Windowpane," was released in early 2015. The debut album “Timeline”, appeared later in the year on the label. A year later, Stones Throw released his more ambitious sophomore full-length, “Skiptracing”.


Mild High Club has toured with Mac DeMarco, collaborated a song with Ariel Pink for the album. In 2017, he released a collaboration full album with Australian band King Gizzard “Sketches of Brunswick East”. In late 2017-2018, Mild High Club has performed at the biggest American music festival Coachella as well as sold-out Asia shows in Tokyo, Seoul and Taipei.
