Band Website: www.reverbnation.com/heathrowmusic
Band Members: Matt Fletcher—Vocals, Guitar/Jeff Lahl—Bass Guitar/Don Kurth—Drums/Eric White—Guitar, Vocals
Influences: The elevator pitch . . . A bit Psychedelic Furs, Jesus & Mary Chain, Luna. Comparisons to The Smiths, Lloyd Cole, and Oasis are made & band attempts to “Verve or London Suede it out†are in evidence. The spirit of modern British rock may be our muse, but Heathrow’s Midwestern pedigree assures that the band's sound is its own.
