HEARTSICK is regarded as one of the hardest working bands in the Midwest Metal scene--with a rapidly
growing fan base all across the United States and thousands of diehard fans in the Midwest, they are quickly
becoming the band to watch. Formed in Lansing, Michigan, Heartsick have graduated from local hometown
shows to a touring force to be reckoned with, playing over 1,500 shows since the band’s start in 2000.
Heartsick has made their presence known the old-fashioned way: blood, sweat, and a work ethic matched
by few in the industry--treating every show as if it was their last and every fan as if it was their first.
After years of touring and playing under the name KNOW LYFE, the band has evolved. With a new name and
a highly anticipated follow up record to 2011’s "Empire of Wolves," Heartsick is poised to explode beyond
the borders of the Midwest and has already begun a new legendary chapter in their already legendary career.
Heartsick are: ALFONSO CIVILE (vocalist), JERRED PRUNEAU (guitarist), TALMADGE “JAKE” BRIAN
(drummer) and WAYLON FOX (bassist).
