CD REVIEWS:

"The approach and album are like an effervescent vitamin C drink for jadedness that is borne of a work ethic in honesty; an antithesis of a swagger but the epitome of rock n roll…ladies and gentlemen; Heath!"
Fish (J.Gatica), The BLD

“…they’ve carved out a seventeen-sided gem…acoustic Americana with a punk tinge…wonderful riffage…this album ambles along gently, the guitar is sparse and melodic.”
www.mapsmagazine.co.uk

" Stephen Heath is like a young Willie Nelson in a punk rock band. This is the CD I should have been waiting on the edge of my seat for. It blew me away.It fell out of the sky and into my ears from the gods of rock. "
www.nofimagazine.com

"...Hollywood infused rock n roll at its most hilarious, warms your heart while showing you the finger. Melodic and radio friendly, this record picks at your scabs while lowering your blood pressure. Edgy, dry witted and highly likely to pull a banjo on you when your back is turned....."
www.2bob.co.uk

"...all the best best bits of a great pop rock outfit that you simply can’t find any bad words to say about.
‘Sister’, which has to be one stand out songs on this record, starts with a sweet dance along intro...all the goodness a pop songs needs, catchy, infectious and well crafted. Next track, ‘Nija’, is an incredibly unique and original song
This record is self released, self produced, and was recorded on reel-to-reel four track within five days. The warmest part about this record is it’s crisp rawness and energy that these two guys have put into it. It’s as if it’s more personal to the listener. "
www.theBlueLightDistrict.com

" Acoustics are plucked erratically and there is a general feeling of Americana gone punked out and twisted...a bit PAVEMENT perhaps... excellent. " www.bugbearbookings.com






LIVE REVIEWS:

"an intimate, noisy, beautiful set...“
Fishwrap Magazine-S.F.


"...the usual twenty people or so who fill the four foot space around the stage had somehow multiplied to a herd some one hundred and fifty strong.
Each track he played had layers of his drawl, treacle-dropped in between his pretty-in-punk guitar playing. He danced every beat and meant every word.
There is something for everyone in a Heath! show. That’s probably why everyone in South East London is in love with him.
Two encores. Two encores.
Ian Simpson, The BLD

"Coming at you like a man with St Vitus dance on speed, Stephen rattled through a dazzling array of songs in manic fashion: it was akin to acoustic punk rock! Everyone who watched him was amazed and he has turned into a firm crowd favourite"
'05 UK solo gig @ The Rhythm Factory- Wayne Bootleg

(Radio Show) - "Ain't No Party Like A Rocklands Party" Recorded at the Rockands Party!--
featuring The Pepys, Heath, The Fairies Band, The Shakes, The Total Drop, Plugs & Blah Blah Blah

   About HEATH!

BIO

HEATH! is David Rhee and Stephen Heath, and they are an amplified acoustic guitar and drums duo from Echo Park, California.They met in Los Angeles working at the same restaurant, and it was over their mutual dislike of bussing tables that they formed a band. But I digress.

HEATH!'s live performance is pure, electrifying, and akin to a stand-up comedian who cracks us up spontaneously, then breaks into an infectious display of honest and soulful songwriting about his long gone dog or the near impossibility of communicating with our families. In ’06 Stephen and Dave hit the road, playing 11 shows from London to Paris, selling almost 200 CD’s and gaining a formidable fan base for their first real European tour (Stephen played three solo shows in London in ’05). Stephen is currently recording a video E.P., writing new material, putting together shows for another UK foray, and promoting their latest CD.

With only two members, Stephen and David have to use all of their powers to fill each song, to make every song count, to bring every song to life. Honesty is paramount, honesty in subject matter, performance and in how they are laid to tape; no over dubs, recorded live.

Look forward to HEATH!s first LP, if you dare!
Title:Fache Brut: the Further Adventures of Spondoolix and Spizzerinctum

Self released and self produced, it was recorded in a large brick room on an inconsistent reel to reel four track in five days. Mistakes, botched harmonies, lyrical lapses all turn into something else. Something alive and varied, with nooks and crannies to grab onto, places to hide, and things to discover.

The stories are about growing up and rocking out, dogs and families, regrets and remembrances, of times gone by, places of yore, and bowls of oatmeal.Enjoy.



Our Record:




I decided to record an EP using only a video camera. No studio or Pro Tools, just shoot each take, and then edit them together instead of mixing. This is what I got. It was fun.....update-the main vid is a new song, not the one described above

Thanks Stephen. That was a very enjoyable night and it turned into Party Central in the small hours (email if you want the juicy details).
Check out The Wombats or at least let me know what their impact was in LA. They're lovely guys.

Awww, I hope people are giving you the recognition and love your talent deserves... :o) So you like Killola as well? I'm sure I could acquire this answer by digging a little, but, I thought I had read somewhere that you had at one point shared a stage with them; that is, you played before or after they played at a club in Cali.
Am I wrong?

oh, sorry I now respond to your request for a long time ago: you had asked me if I had never created covers for CDs, and I will now answer to YES! I do anything that is graphics, but mainly being a lover of music I love doing covers of CDs.
Thank you for interest and still sorry to have you responded so late.
