Artist History LEAKJoey Buruato – GuitarMike Zeh – GuitarOscar Gomez – Bass/VocalsErnie Avila – DrumsSammy Tercero – Lead VocalsLEAK’s history dates way back to the early 1980s when Joey, Oscar, and Ernie began their music careers as an air band. They emulated the styles of Motley Crue, Quiet Riot, and Stryper. As they each put down their fly swatters and tennis rackets and acquired real instruments and the musical skills to accompany them, they embarked upon a journey which would take them through 15 years of music dreams. Having split up and come together on several occasions through bands like Peyote, Drokaw, and most recently Swamp Juice, they have established a lifetime of friendship, music, and most importantly, LEAK.LEAK jams to sounds of Sepultura, Korn, Prong, Limp Bizkit, and other heavy hitters while maintaining their focus on composing their own material which compare to their musical influences in heaviness. They make sure to regularly update their song lists in order to keep up with the ever changing music scene. The message in their lyrics is clear: society is pissed and doesn’t know why. There are those who subliminally coerce people to kill each other and are successful at it. Open your mind, use your mind, not the mind beat into you by the media, YOUR OWN MIND. LEAK’s “Die On your Feet” is an ode to the Indigenous people of Chiapas, Mexico fighting for a virtually non-existent Democracy and stronger Indian Rights in Mexico. “The Man” exposes the harsh reality of police brutality and poverty in America.During their reign as Heavy Metal masters in El Paso, TX, they opened for such bands as D.R.I, Acid Bath, guitar extraordinare Tony McAlpine, Stuck Mojo, and of course, long time friends Pissing Razors. In addition, they were awarded the 1996 Regional Hispanic Rock’n’Roll Band of the Year with Oscar getting the 1996 Regional Hispanic Rock’n’Roll Artist of the Year. You see, Oscar once took upon the role of singer/bassplayer and all around frontman while doing gigs in places like San Antonio, Odessa, Las Cruces, Deming, etc.LEAK took a two-year hiatus beginning in 1997 with the departure of guitarist Rick Valles, who is now touring as a bass player with Noise Records’ Pissing Razors and with Ernie’s obligation to the judicial system(jail). Upon regrouping and recruiting area high school youths Mike Zeh,16, and Sammy Tercero, 17, LEAK returned with a ferocity beyond that of previous years. LEAK continues to perform with a profound determination to make their impact in the music industry and to spread their message of political truth and social consciousness at any cost.
