Heed The Arsonist

Heed The Arsonist is a high-energy rock band from Niagara Falls, Ontario. For its members, music has always been an artistic obsession. It's a rare creative outlet that has opportunity to inspire people while having fun.

Brothers Brad and Aaron Moore teamed up in 2007 to write for their most ambitious endeavor. Aaron had spent the previous few years in Berlin, Germany experiencing its lifestyle and music scene while Brad rocked stages around Ontario with his punk band. When Aaron returned to Canada, the brothers began planting seeds of ideas in their home studio. Most of this time was spent producing and writing songs that would mesh their interests and say what they wanted to say.
It was important to them that their lyrics push through in a positive view, trying to not complain but encourage. Aaron's slick guitar playing complimented Brad's melodies and by the fall they had completed a six-track demo. They began to see the potential for this project and it was so close.

This marks the real beginning. The brothers were joined by Brad's lifelong band-mate Tyler Bishop on guitar and close friend Ryan Petsche on drums. The studio ideas came alive and the songs began to take shape as the missing pieces fell into place.
HTAs sound comes from a large palette of influence but still maintains its rock and roll roots. With an alternative rock sound meshed with modal style jazz in Harvest to driving rock and roll in About You, HTA finds influence from bands like Foo Fighters and U2 to Miles Davis and Jeff Buckley.
It's not always just your typical riff on a wall of noise.
Heed The Arsonist continues to write for an upcoming record while bringing a high-energy performance to the stage.
