Their music was characterized by distorted guitars and organ-driven melodies, typical of the garage rock and psychedelic rock genres of the time. The band's most notable members were Bob Yeazel and John Fannon, both of whom went on to have successful careers in other bands. Despite their short-lived existence, The Higher Elevation's music, particularly their single "The Diamond Mine," has been influential within the genre, being featured on several compilation albums of psychedelic and garage rock.
