For the past two decades, Austin's The Band of Heathens have been ahead of the curve — steadfast in their truth through incisive lyrics and a heartfelt blend of country and rock. Formed in 2005, the Heathens broke into the public consciousness in 2009 with memorable performances at Austin City Limits, and principal songwriters Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist have given the band its collective focus ever since.
Their 2011 song "Hurricane" has gone platinum, and their new album Country Sides finds the band looking back on their 20-year journey with gratitude — built entirely on their own terms, brick by brick, with a DIY ethos that's earned them a devoted global fan base.
