High Tide in the Heartland is the 5th studio album released by Texas singer-songwriter Phil Pritchett. This is the first studio album recorded at Phil's very own Trinidad World Recording studios in Fort Worth, Texas. The idea of the album was to capture the power of a live performance in a studio setting. In Phil's words:
If someone wants to set up the drum kit in the kitchen, fine. If you want to put an amp outside and record a guitar track until the police shut us down, okay. It's all about being free to do something you want and the space has a lot to do with that. It's inspiring, and it's much better than having some guy say 'this is how we do it here' or 'stand there and play this'. I have done both, and I much rather have fun and try things than do something 'right'.
The album generated favored reviews from fans and local Texas magazines.
All songs written by Phil Pritchett except "Released" (B. Dylan) and "Locks" (Lucinda Williams)
