HEAVY WATER, the project created by SAXON frontman Biff Byford and his son Seb Byford during the lockdown, will release its latest groove-saturated, riff-mighty, hip-shaking collection of timeless rock ‘n’ roll titled “Dreams Of Yesterday” next Friday.
“Dreams Of Yesterday” is produced by Biff & Seb, with Biff taking up bass duties once more and sharing vocal duties with Seb, who throws down the big verses and plays the guitars with an effusive energy that crackles from every cut. At the same time, Tom Witts’s assured drumming provides the perfect platform for what is, essentially, a genre-less celebration of wholly egoless music.
Kicking things off is the swagger and thrust of the steamy, psychedelic-tinged single and title track “Dreams Of Yesterday”, swirling less around the North of England than a patchouli-scented Los Angelian summer’s night, a proper rock ‘n’ roll strutter…

HEAVY WATER’s debut album ”Red Brick City” is the result of a lockdown 2020 project between Saxon’s Biff Byford and his son Seb Byford, ten songs that bring you on an irrepressible raw blues-backed journey through influences and invention, a journey that has you hooked from the first note.
In many ways HEAVY WATER’s sound takes me back to the seminal years of Seventies hard rock, others makes you think of a lost recording from an obscure British band from the era. However, Biff and his son are capable to unison the past with the present.
The Heavy Blues based tracks fit very well the band…
