We report STAR measurements relating to higher flow harmonics including the centrality dependence of two- and four-particle cumulants for harmonics 1 to 6. Two-particle correlation functions vs. \Delta\eta and \Delta\phi are presented for pT and number correlations. We find the power spectra (Fourier Transforms of the correlation functions) for central collisions drop quickly for higher harmonics. The \Delta\eta dependence of v3{2}2 and the pT and centrality dependence of v2 and v3 are studied. Trends are conistent with expectations from models including hot-spots in the initial energy density and an expansion phase. We also present v3 and v2{2}2 - v2{4}2 vs. \surdsNN .
