Heavy Dime

We like to jam. Do you? The genesis of Heavy Dime goes back a long way - 14 years, back to 1996, to be exact. Our current line-up consists of what happens when good people stick around, and come together, because of good music. Heavy Dime is about making music in the moment. Always has, and always will be. Because of that, we find ourselves in many spontaneous wavelengths, communicating with each other on the fly, unrehearsed, and uninhibited across a landscape that is both vast and uninhabited. That is the beauty of music, and that is what we try to interpret and convey to the listeners, whether that be just us, or a bar full of patrons. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
