with support from dirty mike, allsorts and eyes of home.
since forming in 2024, heavyskint have wasted no time in establishing themselves as ones to watch. initially a bedroom side project, the current line-up came together in early 2025 and have sold out every show they have played to date including turns at iconic venues like King Tuts and QMU. fronted by the enigmatic Jacob Hunter, the raw, unpredictable nature of such performances have gained the band a growing following across Glasgow.
heavyskint’s sound draws upon the modern influences of Fontaines D.C and Wunderhorse while possessing the brooding, spacious vintage of Pink Floyd and the confrontational edge of late 90s rock. moody atmosphere, big choruses, noisy guitars, and high intensity.
