ABOUT THE HONEST HEART COLLECTIVE
Thunder Bay's anthemic rock outfit The Honest Heart Collective (THHC) returned with their new single "Outrun," available on all major streaming platforms. Known for their grit, sincerity, and sing-along anthems, The Honest Heart Collective channels the spirit of Northern Ontario with a sound that fuses the energy of punk, heartland rock, and folk-rooted storytelling.
"Outrun" follows a successful touring year for the trio, which saw the band appear on several high profile tours and festivals including The Northern Light Tour with Royal Tusk and BRKN LOVE, All Your Friends Fest, the Zero Hours Tour with Matthew Good, and they recently returned home from a tour with The Strumbellas.
THHC's last full length album, "More Harm" was helmed by JUNO-nominated producer Derek Hoffman, contributing 10 million lifetime streams. Since their 2015 debut "Liar's Club," the band has carved out a reputation for electrifying live shows and unflinching songwriting. Their follows "Grief Rights" (2018) expanded their sound with sweeping emotional weight, while 2021's "More Harm" showcased a sharper, more refined edge. In 2023, they teamed with JUNO-nominated Gus Van Go to release their single "Suffocate."
Having shared stages with The Glorious Sons, Finger Eleven, and Pop Evil, as well as appearances at Canadian Music Week and Vans Warped Tour, THHC continue to rise as one of Canada's most compelling indie rock outfits. Rooted in community and resilience, their music speaks to the struggles and triumphs of life in the north, honest to the core.
