The Heshers

About Me

The Heshers are a 3-piece band from NJ. They’ve been compared to The Descendents, Cheap Trick, and Weezer. They've earned a reputation for being a great live band with a knack for songwriting.As a self-contained unit with a solid DIY ethic, their full-length album, “Distance Equals Depth” (LawnDarts Records) was recorded in Jeff’s studio. It built a positive buzz and gotten them local airplay.Combining the best elements of punk, indie, classic rock & metal, and power-pop, The Heshers fuse it all into tuneful, heavy songs that stick in your brain and your gut.Unconcerned with chasing the latest trend, The Heshers blaze a path that is truly their own. Great rock shouldn’t be about fashion or having the right haircut.
