CL RECOMMENDS
CL Critic Hal Horowtiz Recommends:This UK based male/female couple craft melodic, sunshiny, somewhat retro, psychedelic folk-rock featuring harmonious vocals reminiscent of The Mamas and Papas but slightly, errr heavier. They’ve gotten plenty of notice with only one pretty terrific album and became a buzz band at last year’s AmericanaFest. See what the fuss is about. - HH
From the venue:
The Heavy Heavy create the kind of unfettered rock-and-roll that warps time and place, immediately pulling the audience into a euphoric fugue state with its own sun-soaked atmosphere. Led by lifelong musicians Will Turner and Georgie Fuller, the Brighton, UK-based band began with a shared ambition of “making records that sound like our favorite records ever,”? and soon arrived at a reverb-drenched collision of psychedelia and blues, acid rock and sunshine pop. As revealed on their gloriously hazy debut EP Life and Life Only, The Heavy Heavy breathe an incandescent new energy into sounds from decades ago, transcending eras with a hypnotic ease.
