HEAVYMAN - Pigs


It’s an interesting time for a new band to break, but after the warm reception of their debut single “Baby Jean” in May, London rock act Heavyman have no qualms about stepping into the light – even if it is the light of your LCD screen.

This August, the newly minted alt-rock outfit offers their second commercial release. Incendiary and bold, “Pigs” asks the divisive question, “who do you follow?” and speaks to the age old tug-of-war between the political powers that be, and the everyman with boots on the ground who strives to have their voice heard.

Toeing the line between woeful ode and protest song, “‘Pigs’ was written in 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea… I was reading Animal Farm at the time,” says frontman Charlie Yang, “I wanted to explore this almost careless sense of loyalty to whomever may be calling the shots… to write a song as a conversation between those who follow and those who lead.”

Heavyman are also celebrating the release with a donation to the ACLU on the centennial anniversary of their ongoing fight against human rights violations. 

Heavyman are an alt-rock four piece, comprised of Charlie Yang (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Nick Burns (Lead Guitar), Igor Fonseca (Bass Guitar), and Tom Papaloizou (Drums). One of the most promising new acts out of London, they have been dubbed “iconic,” “refreshing,” and “the next face of alternative rock.”

Inspired by classic rock titans Elton John and Queen, the careful lyricism of Jeff Buckley and gritty stylings of Queens of the Stone Age and Audioslave, Heavyman’s sound is defined by soaring vocals that range from trills to tremors, and intoxicating instrumentation to grip the ear and heart of any rock fan. As they build towards the release of their first EP, Heavyman are stepping out with a sound that is unabashedly dramatic, sentimental and electrifying.
