Heiress
Nowhere Nearer
Spawned from the NWHC territory, HEIRESS has been forging their own path since 2006 when guitarist Wes Reed set out on his vision to concoct bleak, dynamic, forward-thinking, hardcore-informed metal along with friends Justin Martinez (JOUGH DAWN BAKER) on drums, John Pettibone (UNDERTOW, HIMSA) on vocals, and Mat Houot (NURSER) taking up bass duties. In 2023, the band embraced a second guitarist in Bob Reed (DEVOTION, SUPERCRUSH), adding his resonance and warmth to their existing soundscape. Always difficult to pin down or pigeonhole, HEIRESS stylistic fluidity has allowed them to share the stage with bands like BLAST!, EYEHATEGOD, CAVE IN, INTEGRITY, HOT WATER MUSIC, VOIVOD, 40 WATT SUN, and YOB.
