Heavy Feather

Debris & Rubble

The Sign Records, 2019

Heavy Feather’s name is one which follows a proud tradition of combining something dense with something light. Prime examples being Led Zeppelin, and Iron Butterfly. And so from Sweden, emerges the earthy, vaguely swampy, retro musical stylings of Heavy Feather. With a sound deeply rooted in 1974, this four piece stomps, boogie’s and shuffles like a kick ass bar band who’ve cut their teeth playing 3 sets a night in front of a bunch of hostile biker’s who will gladly let you know if you suck.

With unpretentious songwriting and a solid performance, they deliver these tunes with a working mans ethos. There’s Extra Cowbell on tap, and plenty of swirling, snake like bluesy riffs. “Where Did We Go,” “Hey There Mama,” and “Higher,” are stand out tracks. Bell bottoms are fighting their way back into the world, And Heavy Feather would totally rock them too.

Worth checking out on your hi-fi, as you disappear into the plush shag carpet in your sunken living room. Dig it.
