About New Heights

New Heights is a band from Federal Way, WA (USA). The band, made of Asian-American members Travis Graham (lead vocal),Chris Kwak (guitarist), Park Kiyung (guitarist) and bassist Tyler Carroll, and drummer Bobby Walker has released three studio EP’s and a full-length album, “Something to Believe In” to their credit. Their first single “Peaches” gained fame when it was featured in a short film titled “Love Language” by the Jubilee Project.

In 2011, New Heights were invited to be part of the highly popular International Secret Agents (ISA) concerts series that included names such as Far East Movement, Wong Fu Productions, Sean Kingston,Jay Park, David Choi, Ryan Higa, Clara Chung and many other YouTube stars. This opens up a whole new fan base and opportunities for the band which then goes on tour with Clara Chung, traveling all over the United States. New Height's members Travis and Chris were also invited to meet the President of the United States as representative of the Asian American community last December 2011.

Despite this success, the band remains humble, advising aspiring musicians to maintain their professionalism and to always strive for more.
