Gather round the fire kids, our new single ‘This is Heavy’ is coming out December 2nd! Part of our new ‘Deep Cuts’ series of singles – ‘This Is Heavy’ is a bit of a different vibe for us, it has more of an electronic, R&B sort of feel. When we’re not working on big, anthemic rock songs together in the jam room, we’re usually in one of our home studios cooking up some sort of different musical concoction.

‘This Is Heavy’ is the result of that experimentation, but is definitely still a full on band effort. Nick laid down the main guitar part and a soulful Marvin Gaye inspired vocal, Dave played a slinky and sexy as hell bass line, Adam provided the funk on electronic drums, and Jon capped it all off with an inspired guitar solo. Need we say more? This tune in particular was written a long time ago, it’s a bit of a ‘deep cut’ but it’s a song we always wanted to share with the world. This is Fool’s Union at our most chilled out – this song is meant to be listened to on a nice couch, joint in hand, waiting for your love to come home.

The title ‘This Is Heavy’ is a nod to the famous line from ‘Back To The Future’ – we love taking cool lines from movies and writing a song around them. Funnily enough, despite the heavy title, this is actually our least heavy song, and we’re cool with that. We didn’t want to let 2022 pass us by without releasing another new tune, so consider this our Christmas gift to you! And don’t worry, our next rock anthem is on the way very soon!

‘This Is Heavy’ is available on all streaming and download services December 2nd.
