Willy Nilly + Heavy Head


  • The Toucan & Kirkpatrick's 76 Princess Street Kingston, ON, K7L 1A5 Canada (map)

An alt(ish)-rock(ish) band pulling from contemporary alternative and some early 2010s, Willy Nilly's influences don't just end there. Similar bands become harder and harder to point to the more you listen to Willy Nilly's wide ranging and growing discography. Members have changed around singer/songwriter Owen Fullerton since the band's birth in 2019, but the lyrically dense, vulnerable songwriting has remained at the center of the band's upbeat but laid back sound. They released their debut album in 2021 and are looking to release the newest full length in 2023.

Based in Toronto, Canada, Heavy Head is an alternative rock band. With diverse influences spanning several eras and genres, the band has quickly gained a reputation for their electrifying live performances and quality songwriting: full of mesmerizing keyboard/synth soundscapes, intricate guitar riffs, and thought-provoking lyrics. Their music seeks to create interest in the mundanity of life around them with an unapologetic and raw honesty that resonates with audiences. During their first full year, after selling out some of Toronto's most prestigious venues, HH was awarded entry into Exclaim's Class of 2023 and went on an Eastern Canada tour. With a steadily growing fanbase and unique sound, Heavy Head, is poised to make a significant impact on the Canadian music scene.
