ONE ELEVEN HEAVY

TOURING EUROPE IN JUNE/JULY 2023

One Eleven Heavy is the band formed by singer-songwriter James Toth (FKA Wooden Wand) with British guitarist and songwriter Nick Mitchell Maiato in 2016.

Cut from the same cloth as Little Feat, The Grateful Dead, The Band, and Crazy Horse, One Eleven Heavy helped usher in a new wave of “cosmic americana” or “indie jam” alongside brethren Howlin’ Rain, Garcia Peoples, and Chris Forsyth & The Solar Motel Band.

In late 2022, One Eleven Heavy released its third studio LP, Poolside, with Jake Morris of Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks on drums and British bass player Guy Fowler.

PRAISE FOR ONE ELEVEN HEAVY’S POOLSIDE:

“One Eleven Heavy’s Allman-Brothers-meets-Royal-Trux take on Cosmic American Music here transcends its initial barroom holler for something more mellow and ineffable, if no less intricate, with extraordinary guitar solos erupting from every hidden crevice…” MOJO ****

“On Poolside, you can hear shades of everything from Gram Parsons to Willie Nelson, from Michael Hurley to David Crosby, from The Allman Brothers to Santana, with nods to Led Zeppelin… This is cosmic American music, but one with a sense of distance and an international perspective.” UNCUT ****

“The epic ‘Fruit Loops’ is CSNY with the emphasis on Y, complete with ragged Neil-style guitar solo, before briefly alighting on that Graham Nash-fronted version of Supergrass you never knew you needed.” Shindig! ****
