Heavy Lungs is a British noise rock band based in Bristol. The band includes drummer George Garratt, guitarist Oliver Southgate, vocalist Danny Nedelko, and bassist James Minchall.

History[edit]

Heavy Lungs formed in Bristol in early 2017 through bassist James Minchall and vocalist Danny Nedelko.^[1]^[2] Nedelko and Minchall had worked together, and began recording music together, later recruiting local Bristol musicians, Oliver Southgate and George Garratt to round out the band.^[3] In 2018, the band released their debut extended play, Abstract Thoughts.

In late 2018, the lead singer became subject of a song of his namesake by fellow Bristol band, IDLES, who released the track "Danny Nedelko" as a lead-single off of their sophomore album, Joy as an Act of Resistance.^[4]

In 2019, the band released two EPs: Straight to CD which came out on 14 February 2019.^[5] The second EP, Measure was released on 10 October 2019.^[6]

On 29 September 2023 the band released their debut studio album, All Gas No Brakes.^[7]
