Written in the middle of the pandemic, when Anne Bennett was on a trip down south to attend a memorial service, the brewing feelings in her chest poured out of her with a surprising turn which becomes what we hear today - “Heavy Head.”

Unlike the most logical conclusion of a song written from her own personality, “Heavy Head” marched on the street with its dark, haunting character, so much like the virus itself. Bewitching guitar and the lingering, stringy screams in the background weave into a giant web that ties up its captivity. In the rock and pop-infused soundscape, “Heavy Head” is a song with personality and grittiness.

The melodic ideas were a collection of wandering thoughts in space. It reminded you of something from the corner of your memory but laughed with its unique twists and turns. “Heavy Head” is something else.

Anne Bennett’s vocal is the soul of the song. Raw and smoky, her voice has a natural, unforgettable quality to it. Growing up in a musical household, the artist has always been surrounded by the soundtrack of vinyl CDs in turntables. After pursuing science later in her life, the artist reunited with her initial passion with no reservation and aimed to share her musical gifts with more people.
