History

Brettin grew up in the Midwest, playing flute in his school band.[2] He majored in jazz studies at Columbia College in Chicago, and started Mild High Club in 2013.[3] Brettin worked on Mild High Club's first album, Timeline, for almost three years until its release in 2015.[4]

His sophomore LP, Skiptracing, was released in 2016. Pitchfork reviewed the album, stating Skiptracing is an improvement from Timeline, where "a more confident artist emerges with a fuller vision and voice."[5]

gollark: Where n = infinity.
gollark: Which bot? And what is `FALSE`?
gollark: Also, add Rust support!
