Based in The Hague, Heath is a five-piece injecting fresh energy into progressive and psychedelic rock.
With standout shows at Roadburn, ESNS 2025, and Popronde, they blend hypnotic songs with liberating atmospheres, forging a modern, vital identity.
With Murmurations, Heath transcends previous boundaries to embrace a more mature and melancholic sound. With love and devotion as its overarching theme, it stands as a deeply honest expression of musical freedom. Here, Heath dives deeper into a more spiritual territory of progressive rock, allowing complexity, heartache, hope, and reverence to coexist in resonant tension. Layers of atmosphere, hypnotic grooves, and rich harmonies draw the listener into yet another odyssey.
''With Heath, it’s difficult to say what to expect, other than that it’s intense. “Murmurations,” at fifteen minutes and thirty-five seconds the longest track on the album, immediately shows that Heath flies off in every direction. The experience seems to come partly from the American countryside and partly from Focus with a glance toward the fairground, but the atmospheres slowly shift. Nothing is safe. Psychedelic rock takes hold, sly flirtations with hard rock appear, and progressive influences seem free to flourish widely. At times it’s as if Focus wants to play Pink Floyd within the boundaries of a place where time doesn’t matter. Because of that, they dare to play small notes, to enchant, and to establish a broad sound.'' - Whiteroom Reviews
''For lovers of high-quality performances of passionate musical pieces that can’t be placed in a single category, but have overlaps with blues, psych, prog, and a handful of side paths, Heath is definitely worth a listen. In the info, Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, and Red Devils are mentioned as points of reference, but you could very easily add The Doors, (certain periods of) King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard, or even Captain Beefheart to that, in my opinion; a very fine record indeed! By the way, if you want to see them live, they’ll be performing in many venues across the country from the end of November onward, so seize your chance.'' - Rockportaal
