Music Style Guitar Rock

Musical Influences Metallica, Alice in Chains, Black Sabbath

Artist History Heavy Water formed after guitarists Dave DiNiro and Alex Schuster, along with singer Ren Mercado, realized that they had outgrown the rhythm section of their then current band. They recruited their friend Steve Tyzko on bass and his brother, drum prodigy Mike Tyszko, to fill in the band. With a common love for metal gods such as Metallica, Alice in Chains, and Black Sabbath, Heavy Water keeps the tradition of hard rock and metal alive.
