The Heavy Heavy Release Debut Album One Of A Kind Today Via ATO Records

STREAM ONE OF A KIND HERE | PURCHASE TOUR TICKETS HERE

(NEW YORK, NY) FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6 - Today, The Heavy Heavy, the UK-based band who have been hailed as “one of the most talented rock bands alive” (Paste), release their debut album, One of a Kind, via ATO Records. Inspired by a variety of iconic artists and genres, including the Rolling Stones, Motown, and 1990s Brit rock, One of a Kind weaves a dynamic tapestry of themes centered around empowerment, joy, and self-reflection. Stream One of a Kind HERE.

The Heavy Heavy are set to appear on CBS Saturday Morning next Saturday, September 14th. The appearance will include three electric performances of tracks off the album. The band has recently been featured in Paste (who also called the album “a phenomenal rock record”) HITS Magazine’s New & Developing Artists issue, and on The Record Store Day Podcast and Grammy.com’s Global Spin - you can watch their performance of “Happiness” HERE.

The album’s lead single, “Happiness," recently reached No.1 at both AAA and Americana Radio. This is the band’s first-ever No.1 single, building on the Top 5 success of both “Miles and Miles” and “Go Down River” from their critically acclaimed breakout EP, Life and Life Only. In addition to “Happiness,” the new album 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, and reverb-soaked closing track, “Salina.”

Written entirely by co-founders Georgie Fuller and Will 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 called them “brilliant” and 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. 

Tickets are now on sale for The Heavy Heavy’s fall headline tour, which kicks off later this month. The 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.
