HEAVY HEART

Hailing from one of London’s beating creative hearts, the emerging land of Peckham, Heavy Heart are a boy/girl duo who are beginning to rise above the new music radar. Having formed earlier this year, Heavy Heart have recently relased their debut EP entitled ‘This Season‘, along with performing their very first few live shows across our nation’s capital. While details on the band remain relatively sketchy, plenty of tastemaker blogs and the NME have already picked up Heavy Heart, with the latter describing their sound as ‘lush and scrumptious’.

Within ‘Shell’, lifted from the band’s debut EP, there is a driving lead guitar line, which is sewn within infectious percussion and resonating vocals that feel like they gracefully linger in your mind way after the track itself has finished. Hazy without being lo-fi, and melodic with a sense of purpose, the sound that Heavy Heart have created within their debut EP should make them a one to watch in 2015.
