ABOUT THE EVENT

Color Red Artist Object Heavy is Humboldt County’s hardest hitting soul sensation. The band is led by the nuanced and powerful voice of Richard Love and composed of seasoned veterans of the West Coast Soul and Funk scene. Fresh off the release of their new record, 'Love & Gravity' (Produced by Kelly Finnigan of Monophonics), and 5th win as North Coast Journal’s “Best Original Band Of Humboldt” in the past 7 years nominated, they have garnered stellar reviews from an international audience and were promoted as a featured artist on Apple Music's Soul and RnB carousel. They were also featured on several of Apple Music's top playlists within their genre field. Object Heavy has spent the last few years establishing themselves as a stand out live experience in touring the greater western United States and sharing the stage with diverse talent such as Orgone, The Motet, Rebirth Brass Band, Polyrhythmics, Turkuaz, Lyrics Born, and Chali 2na. Object Heavy’s magnetic blend of classic Cadillac soul, effortlessly contagious dance grooves, vocal harmonies and blazing musicianship is a must see live experience.

"Object Heavy's Love & Gravity (2023, Color Red) cooks from a different kitchen in Color Red's new-school/old-school musical universe and presents the subtle jazz, funk, and psychedelic flavors swirling around in the 1970s sound of California soul." – All About Jazz

“The object is heavy, and so is the vibe! Latest discovery under the venerable Color Red umbrella, a throwback blast of soulful R&B and smoked-out rare groove from this dope West Coast crew. Get familiar!” -B. Getz, Live for Live Music

“A tight well oiled machine that plays heavy funk and R&B fueled by great songwriting and deep grooves.”-Kelly Finnigan, producer
