Americana band Heavy Diamond Ring will perform at The 5 Spot in Nashville, TN on July 23 as part of a Midwest tour supporting their third full-length album, Wildflower Lane, released June 13 via Gitcha Records. The offering marks a fresh chapter for the band, rooted in the long-standing musical partnership between vocalist/trumpeter Sarah Anderson and guitarist Paul DeHaven, who began collaborating in 2004. After the disbanding of beloved indie-folk group Paper Bird, the duo formed Heavy Diamond Ring and began cultivating a new sound that’s been described as “open-road, long drive music,” and “a little bit of twang, and a whole lot of beef.” The current lineup features Anderson and DeHaven alongside longtime collaborators Blake Stepan on bass, Mike Lang on keys, and Orion Tate Ignelzi on drums—the same seasoned crew that recorded the new album.
Led by Anderson’s smooth-as-honey vocals and DeHaven’s rugged guitar work, Heavy Diamond Ring is known for its open-hearted folk-rock sound, rich harmonies, and dynamic live shows, having previously collaborated with Nathaniel Rateliff and the Colorado Symphony. Wildflower Lane, praised for its stripped-down production and lyrical intimacy, explores themes of enduring love, connection, and introspection through standout tracks like “Happy Days,” “To Know You,” and “Like Lightning.” The band also debuted a new music video for “Don’t Go It Alone” on June 27, directed by La La Land executive producer Jasmine McGlade. Described by 303 Magazine as music that “feels as classic as rolling down the windows in the summer” and by CS Indy as “contemporary indie-folk that goes down easy,” Heavy Diamond Ring continues to carve a bold, resonant path across the Americana landscape.
