Following a mammoth North American tour, The Heavy will return to the UK in January 2013 for a short tour.
The Heavy play a mix of guitar-heavy neo-soul and rock using crunchy guitar, funky horns, and Curtis Mayfield-like vocals. Their songs incorporate many different styles; for example, 'Sixteen' samples the horn line from Screamin' Jay Hawkins's 'I Put a Spell on You'. 'How You Like Me Now?' samples the song 'Let a Woman Be a Woman' by Dyke & the Blazers. 'Oh No! Not You Again' emulates garage rock; and 'Girl' is a combination of spoken word and rap sampled from Terry Reid's 'Superlungs'.
'The Glorious Dead', the third studio album by The Heavy, was released earlier this year on 20th August. The band will return to the UK next year for a short string of shows supporting the release.
