On the heels of back-to-back performances on Conan and The Daily Show in May, and the release of their latest album 'Hurt & The Merciless' in April, The Heavy will once again bring their ferocious sonic grit to the U.S. for an extensive, headlining tour this September. The band has also unveiled a brand-new music video for the biting riff-rocker, "Slave to Your Love," channeling both the sheer vitality of their live show and their trademark retro aesthetic.

Check out their dynamic, late-night renditions of "Turn Up" (on Conan: http://bit.ly/1W3CgJs) and "Since You Been Gone" (on The Daily Show: http://on.cc.com/28IYFHe)
The Heavy performed at Coachella 2016, a sold-out run of West Coast shows and just wrapped up select dates with The Dixie Chicks, including a performance at Madison Square Garden. Their forthcoming headlining tour includes New York's Webster Hall, LA's The Fonda, fall festivals, and more. Tickets go on sale June 24th.

"An emphatic return, one that re-traces their initial roots but blasts forward down fresh, and deeply individual, paths." - Clash (UK)
