The Heavy hail from Noid, a small town in southwest of England. The band will be lumped in with the retro-soul revival, but The Heavy add cool lo-fi samples and facemelting guitar solos to create a one of a kind groove that's heavy, dirty, and funky.

Songs performed: "Coleen," "Sixteen," "That Kind of Man," and "Oh No!"
