Raw, electric and unapologetically blues and groove driven, The Heavy Kicks are a Melbourne based power trio pushing boundaries of psychedelic blue and rock. Fronted by guitarist and vocalist Shaun Klinger, with Chris Rourke on bass and Mark Degiorgio on drums, the band delivers a sound that is equal parts soulful, gritty and explosive.
The Heavy Kicks are known for high energy performances that blur the lines between structured songwriting and free flowing improvisation. Their sets weave together fiery originals and reimagined classics. Klinger’s reputation as a tone shaping guitarist and gear builder underpins the band’s sonic identity, while Rourke and Degiorgio lock in with thunderous precision, creating rhythm section that’s both heavy and dynamic.
