About Uriah Heep

Uriah Heep is an iconic, pioneering British hard rock, heavy metal, and progressive rock band formed in London, England, in 1969 by guitarist Mick Box, vocalist David Byron, multi-instrumentalist/songwriter Ken Hensley, bassist Paul Newton, and drummer Alex Napier. Alongside Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep is universally revered as one of the 'Big Four' founding fathers of British hard rock and heavy metal. Their seminal 1970s multi-platinum masterpiece albums, including 'Demons and Wizards' (1972), 'The Magician's Birthday' (1972), and 'Look at Yourself' (1971), spawned immortal rock anthems including 'Easy Livin'', the legendary acoustic masterpiece 'Lady in Black' (which topped European charts for weeks), 'Gypsy', 'July Morning', 'The Wizard', and 'Sunrise'. Their signature sound pioneered theatrical operatic vocal harmonies, soaring Hammond organ overdrive, and thunderous hard-rock guitar riffs. With over 40 million records sold worldwide and continuous global arena touring across more than five decades led by founding guitarist Mick Box, Uriah Heep's legacy is immortalized in rock history. For acoustic and electric guitarists worldwide, 'Lady in Black' (with its legendary, hypnotic two-chord acoustic progression of Am - G) and 'Easy Livin'' remain essential, timeless classics for guitarists of all generations.
