Each Measure Feature: Heavy On The Heart

FEATURE

In the pulsating heart of Long Island, NY, Heavy on the Heart emerges as a melodic rock force. With nothing to lose, the voice of the captivating Nikki Brady intertwines passion with vulnerability. The guitar and resonant horizons of struggle and victory are wrought by Costas Themistocleous. The heartbeat emerges with the unrelenting force of the rhythm of drummer Nick Kolokathis. And the groove that anchors their sound is driven by bassist Andrew Nicolae. An alternative rock band that etches its listeners deep into its sonic portrait, depicting the nuanced milestones of its experience.

An anthem of steadfast power, “Toe to Toe” is a testament to unwavering strength and resilience. The song delivers an empowering message, inspiring individuals to find the courage to rise above and declare that they won’t be silenced. With lyrics like “I’m Not Letting This Go,” the track is a relentless reminder of the ability to meet challenges head-on  and to return from the harshest setbacks. The music video reflects those same notes, pitting two women in the throes of a furious street confrontation that quickly becomes an iconic tableau of an altogether different kind within the ordered confines of a boxing ring. This clash of chaotic energy and brutality with the clean and definitive resolution has a metaphorical feel, capturing the abject determination at the heart of “Toe to Toe” and ultimately serving as a call to arms for those looking to muster the strength to come and conquer, regardless of the odds.
