Previously called Plantains, Heaters play a beautifully crafted garage rock mixed in with surf and psych. Heaters is Andrew Tamlyn, Nolan Krebs and Joshua Korf. Old high school chums, Tamlyn and Krebs moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan, in the summer of 2013 to start working on a project together. The two met Korf, their next door neighbor, soon after and quickly started writing and recording tunes in their home studio.
Their first year together saw the trio make some big leaps, spewing out a handful of homespun EPs, split records and a 10”, drawing acclaim for their spacey, driving take on West Coast psych rock. Tapping into both the twang of their ‘60s garage compatriots and forging their own brand of expansive, cosmic swells, Pitchfork calls the band “catchy and kinetic,” noting their “energy and hook writing are clearly on point.”
Backed by a seemingly constant output of “reverb coated, fuzz studded, hard driven garage psych” and a truly wicked live show, HEATERS are quickly forging something new and taking it on the road. Listen close. - in dizzybirdrecords.com/artists/heaters/
