The only Uriah Heep Tribute Band in the Netherlands! An evening full of steaming Uriah Heep classics like Easy Livin', July Morning, Gypsy and Lady in Black. Played by fans for fans.

Why is that?
The basic idea behind this initiative is a very simple one: 'from fans, for fans'. We meet each other every time at the concerts of Uriah Heep, drink a beer, talk about the music and enjoy the magisterial sounds of The Mighty Heep. At a certain point the thought occurred to Erik van Loenhout (drummer) that if there are musicians in that same fan base now, it should be possible to do something musical with it. And so the idea was born. The musicians are exclusively recruited from the notorious Heep fanatics. The communication channel used was Facebook Messenger. No auditions or playing; a list of songs was shared digitally and a date was agreed to get together and play everything through

The Members:
Singing: Gerrit Gerlofsma
Guitar/Vocal: Geert Viswat
Bass: Gert King
Keyboards / vocals: Jan Martin Monster
Drums: Erik van Loenhout

All musicians have one thing in common: a passion for Uriah Heep and the will to present this in a musical way. From far and wide we meet again in the rehearsal room to fill it with ripping wah wah guitars, pounding basses, powerdrums, screaming hammonds and high polyphonic vocals. But also very intimately highlighting the very 'umble side'; the light guitar sounds, subdued vocals and soft pianos. In other words, a day full of passion, musical friendship and one shared love; The Mighty Heep.
