(NEW YORK, NY) Tuesday, June 11 - Today, The Heavy Heavy, the “brilliant” (The Guardian) UK-based band, announced their debut album, One of a Kind, due out September 6th via ATO Records. The tracklisting’s myriad high points include the majestic title track, the feel-good and carefree love song “Because You’re Mine,” the bass-driven and gorgeously hazy “Miracle Sun,” “Wild Emotion,” a country-infused serenade laced with galloping rhythms and twangy guitar tones, the experimental, reverb-soaked closing track, “Salina,” and the lead single, “Happiness,” out today. Pre-order the album HERE and listen to “Happiness” HERE.

One of a Kind follows the breakout success of The Heavy Heavy's critically acclaimed debut EP Life and Life Only, which featured two AAA radio top five singles and saw the band perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, and CBS Saturday Morning, as well as at several renowned festivals, including Bonnaroo, Boston Calling, and Newport Folk Festival. The band also sold out headline shows in major cities like New York and Chicago and opened for the likes of Black Pumas and Band of Horses.

Accompanying the announcement, The Heavy Heavy have released lead single, “Happiness,” a sun-drenched, sing-along-ready number that serves as an auspicious bridge to the band’s new era. The summery track channels a bold determination to break free from loneliness and stagnation, ultimately providing an automatic mood lift thanks to The Heavy Heavy’s resplendent melodies and signature multi-part harmonies. You can listen to the single HERE and watch the music video HERE.

Written entirely by co-founders Georgie Fuller and William Turner and mostly recorded at Turner’s studio in Brighton, One Of A Kind maintains the self-contained approach of their debut EP, Life and Life Only — a seven-song project acclaimed by outlets like NME (who named them an essential emerging artist for 2023), The Guardian (who noted that The Heavy Heavy “write and play music with that lick of madness that makes early Fleetwood Mac and peak Stones so thrilling”), and FLOOD (who named them “one of the brightest new UK acts”). But in a departure from the EP, One Of A Kind leans away from Laurel Canyon-esque folk-rock and fully embraces their British roots, finding a particularly crucial inspiration in the gritty and groove-heavy hedonism of the Rolling Stones’ Goats Head Soup.

The Heavy Heavy are currently on tour throughout the US and just announced new fall headlining tour dates. This Thursday, they’ll perform at Bonnaroo and, later this summer, they’ll perform at the Edmonton Folk Festival, open for Nathaniel Rateliff and more. 

The fall headline tour will see the band perform at a number of iconic venues across the country, including DC’s Howard Theatre, The Blue Room in Nashville, The Mohawk in Austin, First Avenue in Minneapolis, and the Troubadour in Los Angeles. The tour will kick off on September 21st at the Music Hall Of Williamsburg in Brooklyn, NY and will conclude at Thalia Hall in Chicago on October 25th. Full routing below.
