“Old Enough” is an alternative rock ballad where the band steps away from their alternative roots to lead listeners through the tale of a lustful relationship. Lead guitar/vocal/songwriter Kole Halvorson channels one of his earliest influences Jim Morrison from The Doors to give the song a psychedelic groove that dances throughout its duration. That and the Santana-like guitar hook fuse “Old Enough” into something you would hear in a Tijuana saloon.
“Old Enough” starts with an atmospheric and peeled back rhythm with clean guitars and a delicate drum beat. The band focused on welcoming space throughout the verse sections, which in the end helped the guitar tones shimmer and the bass guitar to accent the rhythm in various ways. The song eventually reaches a heavier jam section with distorted guitars but never loses its feel throughout. Old Enough is quickly turning into a staple in the band’s live show, as it offers a different perspective into The Hi-Tops diverse musical taste. It also provides an opportunity for improvisation, as the song is never played the same way twice. Old Enough was rehearsed lightly before being recorded in studio, which gives the recording an “in the moment” feel which really captures the essence of the song..” – Explains frontman Kole
