Yes. This is the question that yesterday morning appeared in my head. It feels like we've completely lost the track of the last Idol-winner Erik Grönwall and how is it going right now with him in new band after his busy Summer of solo-touring.
Twitter of H.e.a.t is constantly active though and you can find out that the band doesn't stop permanent recordings, rehearsals and performances (new album is planned for the first half of next year). But sure it's better to see once than to read many times so here it is. The biggest H.e.a.t's Melodifestivalen hit "1000 Miles" in new version being sung by Erik. Vocally great but something's missing, no?

Earlier this year popular hardrock-band H.e.a.t. that participated in Melodifestivalen-2009 with the song "1000 Miles" has announced that frontman Kenny Leckremo is leaving group because of problems with voice, moving to UK and therefore having no ability to be a part of H.e.a.t. However the rest of the band decided to move on and immediately started search for a new vocalist. What a huge surprise it was when today H.e.a.t. oficially announced winner of the last Idol season Erik Grönwall new vocalist of band! Erik turned be very successful Idol-winner, 6 of his live covers already got to singles-chart during his participation in Idol, debut covers-album released right after the final reached #1 of albums-chart and second album "Somewhere Between A Rock And A Hard Place" peaked at #2 so probably noone supposed Erik to join some band at least so fast. However both Erik and H.e.a.t. look very optimistic about their union and new H.e.a.t is ready for record of new album and new European and Japanese tour.
