BIO:
Heathers are twin sisters Ellie and Louise Macnamara from Dublin.
Their debut album ‘Here, Not There‘ garnered widespread acclaim internationally amongst both fans and media alike for its unique melodic hooks and extraordinary vocals.
The success of the album resulted in two summer length tours of America on the DIY scene, which developed into further invites to perform at CMJ festival in New York, Canadian Music Week in Toronto, numerous US and European Festival slots including The Great Escape, The Camden Crawl, and support touring with Kimya Dawson of ‘The Moldy Peaches’ and Paolo Nutini for UK and Irish touring.
2012 promises to be a major year for the act having just finished recording their 2nd album with White Lies’ producer Max Dingel and recently signing a deal with Universal Music Publishing UK.

harmonies" - Mischa Pearlman in Music Week

“An inspiringly simple and singularly brilliant record” – State Magazine
“An astounding collection of 11 acoustic guitar tracks” – Sunday Tribune
