About Me

Heapy is a three piece alternative punk band based in London. We met through our shared taste in music and a neverending passion for drunken bowling and the a thirst for haymakers. We've been together for about 3 years, and we've had HEAPS!1 of gigs in the London area
Sometimes we play so loud, people faint.
Sometimes we don't.

Right now we are all based in London, and as of mid-june we are available for gigs whenever, preferably with cool bands who also enjoy alternative audio and pretty colours.

Here's a clip from our gig on the 11/05/07 at the Bull and Gate!!
