The Undisputed Heavyweights

  • WHAT OTHERS SAY

    Officially my favorite band to see live in NYC. - Underrated Magazine

    The local favorites in the Undisputed Heavyweights come armed with lounge-ready shtick, but they are more than just tongue-in-cheek hipsters. Brandishing acoustic guitars and a horn section, the Heavyweights deliver an accomplished rock/blues/soul hybrid, and their endearingly uninhibited front man, Casey Shea, puts them right in the tradition of vaudevillian showmanship. - The New Yorker

    The Undisputed Heavyweights show really is a thing of its own. It's an Vaudevillian acoustic/rock/blues show, or something. Casey's stage persona is equal parts James Brown, Elvis Presley, and Bono. He struts, he preens, his gestures wildly. Heck, the guy wears sunglasses on stage and gets away with it. But then comes the surprise, etched in cursive on the head of a pin. Listen closely, and the songs are beautifully heartfelt, and wrenching. - Benjamin Wagner (MTVNews.com)

Wakey!Wakey!

  • "Mike Grubbs could speak for each and every one of us when he pulls at our heartstrings with tales of lost love and broken spirits. But he's more than just another poetic, tortured soul. Grubbs' combines some beautifully played piano with a voice so striking it resonates around the room galvanising everybody within earshot - both painful and beautiful in equal measure."
    - Joel Crane, NME

Matt Singer

  • Matt Singer is all about words. All Us Heathens, his most fully realized recording to date, hops between rock and hip-hop, bluegrass and jazz, while somehow still holding its ground as a solid folk record. His songs change topic like most people breathe, jumping from the awkwardness of childhood to love, to Jesus, to Jews, to welfare reform, to the hand of judgment to trick-or-treating on Halloween, and back to being the awkward fat kid. .... All Us Heathens finds Matt Singer dressed in a more rustic outfit. Think Bringin It All Back meets Fear of a Black Planet meets A Prairie Home Companion. Yes, this is one complex package. The lyrics jump, the genres drift, and All Us Heathens is highly recommended.
