“Headlong Hearts' lively concert at BEZ last year (which had the feeling of being at the Commodore Ballroom with Spirit Of The West in 1990) enshrined them into our most loved show category.” - Russ Rosen, Artistic Director, BEZ Arts Hub, Langley, BC
Headlong Hearts crafts catchy, poignant original songs. They perform in gorgeous stacked harmony, and weave their musical fabric on violin, banjo, mandolin, guitars, bass and drums. Audiences are inspired by their lyrics, lifted by their melodies, fired up by their playing and captivated by their humour and emotional depth. Headlong Hearts regularly plays concerts, festivals and events around Canada’s West Coast. 2025 marked the release of the band’s second original album Creatures of Habit.
