Biography
Sheavy is a Canadian stoner-metal group formed in 1993 in St. Johnâs, Newfoundland and Labrador, originally under the name Green Machine before adopting the moniker Sheavy in 1994. The early lineup featured vocalist Steve Hennessey, guitarist Dan Moore, bassist Paul Gruchy, and drummer Ren Squires, and they released a three-song EP in 1995 that led to the debut album Blue Sky Mind in 1996 on Dallas Tarr Records. A subsequent deal with Rise Above Records yielded The Electric Sleep (1998), Celestial Hi-Fi (2000), and Synchronized (2002), each expanding the bandâs sonic palette and earning critical praise for their Sabbath-inspired sound. In 2005 the band released Republic?, followed by the live-performance DVD The Machine That Won the War in 2007. Later releases The Golden Age of Daredevils (2010) and Disfigurine (2010) showcased a shift toward heavier, longer compositions. Throughout the 2000s Sheavy toured Europe, performed at festivals such as Dynamo Open Air, and continued to evolve its lineup while maintaining a dedicated following in the Canadian metal scene.
