How You Like New Dates From The Heavy?

The Heavy is keeping busy this summer with more gigs to play in support of its third studio album, “The Glorious Dead.” The English soul/indie rock band has lined up headline shows and festival sets through the U.S. and Canada.

Released last August, The Glorious Dead includes the first single “What Makes A Good Man?” You might have seen the band perform the track recently on late-night television during appearances on “The Late Show With David Letterman” and “The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson.”

The tune, which was used on Miller Beer’s national ad campaign (along with a cameo from the band), was featured during ESPN’s presentation of the 2013 NFL Draft from Radio City Music Hall in New York City earlier this month. The Heavy recorded customized lyrics for “What Makes A Good Man?” and its 2009 hit “How You Like Me Now?” to celebrate the draft.
