About us


"One of London's most spectacular bands" Big George BBC Radio London 94.9FM

As wonderful as the sunset in Ibiza, a song that will expand your mind" Tony Portelli (author) - The Music Industry Raw Book

"Claiming to stand outside of current influences, there's certainly little in common in these Londoners with Franz, Kaisers or Arctics. They know that Dharshika Ariyadasa needs room to soar with his vocals. In the vein of early Cousteu, his deep and baroque voice is sublime" Planet Sound (Teletext Ch4)

"Mournful yet melodic folk-rock with a Tim Buckley vibe" ents24.com

"Heaven's Heathens, Don't change anything about yourselves, you rolled back my years, and reminded me what the industry was and should be all about...Entertainment." Tony Portelli (author) - The Music Industry Raw Book

At a time when it is increasingly popular for bands to follow popular trends and offer up recycled homogenised pop music, Heaven’s Heathens refuse to give up their trademark sound of melodic yet powerful alternative rock. Wearing their influences proudly, blending Americana with their stronger, more powerful British rock roots, Heaven’s Heathens offer you one thing - a turbulent, emotional ride that will leave you breathless.

The band’s winning combination of exceptional music and awe-inspiring live performances has led to the inevitable - label interest. After a plethora of headline slots in London (including support for Universal-signed artist Jackie Green), and a mini tour of the UK, Heaven’s Heathens have built a strong and dedicated fanbase.

By marrying the depth and sensitivity of the singer/songwriter ethos with the power and dynamism of a rock band, Heaven’s Heathens have created a sound that is like no other. The result is a breathtaking sonic journey through joy and despair, love and lost hope - with dynamics, emotive grooves and talent flowing out of every pore.
