will bring its fuzztone soul-rock to the U.S. in a fall tour in October and November that will include co-headlining dates with Mayer Hawthorne & the County. And new EP is also coming up.
Part of contemporary soul revical in this decade that's included Amy Winehouse
and Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings The Heavy is fronted by lead singer Kelvin Swaby. The band made its mark performing the single 'How You Like Me Now?' on The Late Show with David Letterman as Letterman himself requested an encore for the first time in the history of the show. The song was then featured as the soundtrack music for KIA Sorento's current ad, now an internet sensation. The commercial has received well more then 1.3 million views on YouTube and The Heavy's Music Video for 'How You Like Me Now?' has received over 1.6 million views. The number also was featured during the MTV Movie Awards, the French Open, the Stanley Cup Finals, an Ari Gold Redemption scene in Entourage, and recent trailers for the movie Faster, to NBC's TV series Outlaw, starring Jimmy Smits, and A&E's Lawman, starring Steven Seagal.
