水 「MIZU」is a spanish J-rock band formed in Barcelona in 2010 by Toni Torres, Iñaki Gil and Marta Ramos, which has done several lives on Spain and one live on France. According the guitarist and founder Toni Torres, the name of the band was chosen "because we are 90% water, and it's one of the five elements of the japanese philosophy. The kanji of water is one of the first kanji you learn either".

Their style and music are varied, always keeping certain flavour by the traditional japanese culture.
