Celebrated Swedish rock band H.E.A.T will be returning to the UK in January 2025, ahead of their new studio album, and will be touring nationwide with special guests Art Nation and Chez Kane appearing on all dates.
“We are excited to return to the UK for another tour,” said H.E.A.T’s lead singer Kenny Leckremo. “UK audiences are the best and we can’t wait to rock the house in January 2025. The tour is going to be an unforgettable experience. We look forward to seeing our UK fans on the road in January.”
One of the biggest Swedish rock bands who are bringing 80s-inspired hard rock back to the forefront. H.E.A.T will continue to build on their momentum in 2025. Known for an electrifying sound that blends classic melodic rock with modern energy, the band remains at the top of their game, releasing new music and touring internationally.
Their 2022 album, Force Majeure, marked a major milestone as it saw the return of original frontman Kenny Leckremo after a decade-long hiatus. This seventh studio album, released via earMUSIC, captured the essence of H.E.A.T’s sound, merging the youthful exuberance of their early work with the harder-edged sound developed during Erik Grönwall’s tenure. Force Majeure received widespread acclaim, showcasing 11 tracks that exemplify the pure joy of melodic hard rock. Leckremo’s powerful vocals being praised as a triumphant return, and the album’s tight production signalled their laser-focused direction.
Following the departure of Erik Grönwall, who led the band through four albums after winning Swedish Idol, H.E.A.T made it clear that Leckremo was the only choice to take back the mic. The band’s fan base remains fiercely loyal, and the release of Extra Force in 2023 only deepened their connection. This limited-edition collection, released in both CD Digipak and 1LP Black Vinyl formats, featured new studio tracks, unreleased live performances, and re-recorded H.E.A.T classics originally sung by Grönwall, now given new life with Leckremo on vocals. Extra Force was a celebration of the band’s history and a testament to their continued evolution, becoming an essential collector’s item for fans.
Looking ahead to 2024 and beyond, H.E.A.T show no signs of slowing down. The band is currently working on their next album, slated for release in 2025, that promises to build on the success of Force Majeure while continuing to push their sound forward. Fans can expect a series of high-energy singles throughout the year, as well as major live performances across Europe and South America.
As the group gears up for more touring, H.E.A.T’s global presence continues to grow, supported by their strengthened partnership with earMUSIC. With Leckremo back at the helm and their sound more refined than ever, H.E.A.T is poised to continue their journey of revitalising and modernizing 80s-influenced hard rock for a new generation of fans.
