Inhaltsverzeichnis

Karriere

Bereits in den späten 1990ern gründeten die Freunde Kelvin Swaby und Dan Taylor mit weiteren Musikern die Band The Heavy. Erst 2007 nahmen sie für ein Londoner Label ihre ersten Singles auf und im selben Jahr erschien auch ihr Debütalbum Great Vengeance and Furious Fire. Im Jahr darauf wurde es auch in den USA veröffentlicht und sie traten unter anderem bei South by Southwest auf. Es gab aber auch Umbesetzungen, die beiden Sängerinnen verließen die Band; mit dem Bassisten Spencer Page und dem neuen Schlagzeuger Chris Ellul machten Sänger-Songwriter Swaby und Gitarrist Taylor zu viert weiter.

Knapp zwei Jahre später erschien ihr zweites Album The House That Dirt Built, das ihnen in den Staaten den Durchbruch brachte. Es erreichte Platz 6 der Heatseeker-Charts und kam auch in die offiziellen Billboard 200.
