THE KENTS
The Kents were a Canadian indie-rock band from Kawartha Lakes, Ontario. Known for their catchy melodies and energetic live shows, The Kents released two EPs, 2016’s “Waking” and 2017’s “Within Waves” in the midst of 4 years of touring, 10 million+ Spotify streams, global radio play, and features on major sports platforms including the Olympics, Hockey Night in Canada, and MLB’s World Series Of Baseball.
The Kents shared the stage with The Beaches, The Strumbellas, Hollerado, Said The Whale, The Sheepdogs, and Serena Ryder while playing staple Canadian festivals including Hillside Festival, Peterborough Folk Festival, The Beaches Jazz Festival, Supercrawl, Wolfe Island Music Festival, Cultivate Festival, and NXNE. In 2020, the band re-branded to Heaps and released their debut LP “What Is Heaps”, followed by a self-produced EP, “Little Blue”.
As 2026 marks the 10-Year Anniversary of the release of the “Waking” EP, The Kents are reuniting to celebrate with an Ontario tour in August, 2026. With 20,000+ consistent monthly listeners on Spotify currently, The Kents fans are ready for more.
