Hert Industry
Four players. Three voices. Every great era.
Four of Scotland's most experienced session musicians, with three vocalists across the line-up. The Heart Industry live set runs from Bowie to Sabrina Carpenter — built for full rooms and full nights.
The Band
Four players.
One night.
Every era.
Heart Industry is what happens when four of Scotland's most-booked session musicians stop sessioning and start a band. Three lead voices — male and female, every era — one catalogue from the 70s to whatever's on the radio this week.
Built for rooms that need to be moved. Tight. Loud when it needs to be. Restrained when it doesn't. Every note earns its place.
