HERITAGE CENTRE
DUBLIN 7, COUNTY DUBLIN
Holy Melody! It's Heritage Centre.
A marked contrast to the current crop of indie buzz bands, Heritage Centre's sound has been compared to the likes of Weezer, The Shins and Blur.
Tipped as ones to watch in 2010, Heritage Centre have received both national and international airplay, and have successfully etched their name into the etch-a-sketch of up and coming Irish acts.
Their debut EP "The City, The Tree and The Fox" was released on the 20th of February 2009 to a sold out
Whelans. Several runs of the EP in Tower Records have also sold out.
May 8th 2009 saw the band return to Whelans to release their single “I Will Protect You”. This song is taken from the bands second EP titled "Sidney Maxwell Williamson". The EP was produced by Tom McFall (Weezer, Bloc Party, R.E.M.) and was released on November 13th 2009. The release was supported by a nationwide jaunt.
Always a band with a full back pocket - Heritage Centre traveled to Canada in September 2009 to record their debut album in Canada with acclaimed producer David Newfeld (Broken Social Scene, Super Furry Animals, Los Campesinos). With finishing touches being applied this summer the band hope to have the yet untitled album out to warm ears far and wide in late 2010 or early 2011.
