Second tour of the US for good-time, psychedelic, transatlantic five-piece ONE ELEVEN HEAVY in support of their hotly anticipated sophomore album on Brooklyn, NY label Beyond Beyond is Beyond. It's a jammier, harder-hitting and more focused effort than their first release and has already been hyped on the Nights With Alice Cooper by the granddaddy of shock rock, himself. The band also boasts a new drummer in The Jicks' Jake Morris and is sounding hot as F.

Reviews:
Sounding somewhat like The Band and Crazy Horse with a smattering of roots-era Dead, One Eleven Heavy is centred around a veritable roster of players Its organic, joyous, upbeat and natural. Shindig!
'An unabashed, triumphantly affectionate recreation of what Gram Parsons called Cosmic American Music - the country, folk and blues-informed psychedelic rock of the late 1960s and early 70s.' The Wire
It swings on a revolving door of goofball riffs, spun up and spun around all dizzy from an elastic rock and roll boogie. NPR
Taps into a collective consciousness of what was actually classic about rock, without being dictated by what was pressed, sold or spun through the static crackle of radio. This echoes the 72-74-era Grateful Dead as it was lived in the room, and not as it was felt from the runout. Raven Sings The Blues
'On its debut album, Everythings Better, rock & roll combo One Eleven Heavy weave together various threads of choogling psychedelia some Dead here, some Neil Young there, more than a little NRBQ and Little Feat into a thoroughly joyful statement.' Aquarium Drunkard
'Starts out sounding like the Doobie Brothers colliding head on with Little Feat and then dives off into the kind of jazz-flecked guitar, bass and percussive jam that the Hampton Grease Band once made all their own.' Terrascopaedia
Nothing here feels like genre exercise, and while the band may not yet have put in extensive time on the road, they sound like a group that has. Dusted Magazine
One Eleven Heavy has... adeptly mined the magic formula first introduced on Big Pink, mixing sturdy song structures with breathable interludes, loose harmonies and world-class chops. Void Magazine
