A STORY OF THEIR DREAMS

AND ON THE FIRST DAY....

Forming in late 2021, Paul Dean Price II recruited Mathias Brown, Pittsburgh new comer and Sully on Drums, formerly of Thresher Harvey to take up spots in with an existing band, Pretty Tombs. However the project they intended to join was fully abandoned before they got a chance to all meet. Together, with some interesting jams and some material brought by the three, they decided to forge a new band.

In January 2022, Paul met TK Mundok, singer from Black Cat Moan. After some struggle to find a stable singer, Paul asked TK to come and observe to see if this a project he would be interested in.

The next session included TK, who came in while we were jamming and took up a microphone. From those very first few hours were born Eyes of a Killer and Candy. It was then that Dream the Heavy was born.

June 11 2022, Dream The Heavy premiered at Mr Smalls Fun house, with songs, Eyes of a Killer and Beautiful. Just a week later on June 19, 2022, Dream the Heavy made it's first full set performance at the first ever Shellshock Multimedia SPARK Battle of the Bands, hosted at Brandy's Basement. The 25 minute set included Until Tomorrow. Placing first in this heat, Dream the Heavy were staged to compete in the finale, scheduled for later in the year.

Over the next few months, Dream the Heavy continued to write and had perform at venues such as Green Beacon Gallery, Mr Smalls, to support The Argonauts, The Bridge Bar, opening for MINKA. Deutschtown Music Festival before circling back to the Battle of the Band finale in late October 2022.

After placing third in the Battle of the Bands, Dream the Heavy set their sites on rounding out their sound with a fifth member, Ryan Miller from Bonnie and the Mere Mortals for a live EP recording. Hooking up with Pittsburgh producer Bengt Alexsander, Dream the Heavy Performed at Club Café to record a six song EP, The Future Is Now (Live from Club Café).

And that was just year one.
