heavy on the heart. is a sensational new rock outfit that’s redefining the genre with their unique sound and emotionally charged music. Formed by Nikki Brady on vocals, Costas Themistocleous on guitar, Nick Kolokathis on drums and Andrew Nicolae on bass, heavy on the heart. is a quartet driven by passion and a fearless musical spirit.
Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of artists, including Third Eye Blind, The Dangerous Summer, Paramore, Hot Mulligan, blink-182, Foo Fighters,and Taking Back Sunday, heavy on the heart. infuses their music with energy and pop punk attitude. The band’s journey started back in the summer of 2021 when Nikki Brady and Costas Themistocleous linked up. Drummer Nick Kolokathis came on board in October and the lineup was finalised with bassist Andrew Nicolae the next year. Since then, they’ve been on an unstoppable trajectory, winning over fans around the world.
Now, as they prepare to release their debut EP titled It’s You That Has To Think next week, heavy on the heart. brings us their latest single, “Catch Me If I Fall.” The new track is a powerful alternative pop-rock outing that kicks off with the intricate plucking of a clean electric guitar. Nikki’s vocals, initially filtered through a telephone effect, soon join.
Then, the song erupts into a full-fledged rock anthem, featuring commanding vocals, crunchy guitar chords and driving drums. The lyrics are meaningful and memorable, conveying an optimistic message that resonates with anyone facing challenges. It’s a conversation between Nikki and her younger self, offering mutual reassurance that everything will be okay.
Accompanying the single is a music video that cinematically captures the song’s theme. The video begins with the cacophonous shouts of arguing parents, contrasted by a young child seeking solace via her headphones in her bedroom. As the song unfolds, the video weaves shots of the band in a dimly lit room with scenes of the young girl leaving her house to find refuge. It’s a poignant visual representation of the song’s message, capturing the resilience of youth and the enduring spirit to overcome adversity.
As if their upcoming EP and singles weren’t enough, heavy on the heart. has even more in store for their fans. The band has completed production on a full-length record set to drop next year. Furthermore, they’ve got a packed tour schedule, ensuring that their electrifying live performances will reach audiences across various locations throughout the rest of this year and next.
