Weider, a Woodstock native, served as The Band’s lead guitarist from 1985-2000, following Robbie Robertson’s departure. In the late 00s, he replaced Jimmy Vivino in the Levon Helm Band, which already included Mitchell. The connections extend further, as Rogers shared the stage with Helm and Hudson while in The Jim Weider Band and Bram drummed in the Chris O’Leary Band, an off-shoot of Helm’s band The Barnburners.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐝’𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐨 𝐚𝐥𝐛𝐮𝐦 𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐝 ‘𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝’ (𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐), 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐬! The Weight Band’s musical kinship is evident throughout the album, giving it a more cohesive and funkier sound than the group’s acclaimed debut album, ‘World Gone Mad’ (2020), which Billboard called “excellent”. The addition of Zeiner also contributed to the new album’s sound. He forms a potent keyboard/organ tandem with Mitchell and provides the band with an additional strong vocalist.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐩𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭 ‘𝐀𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞’ 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏. This 11-track album features five songs recorded at the Big Pink on October 25, 2019, and six songs recorded the following night in Levon Helm’s barn/studio. Performances include memorable versions of “World Gone Mad,” Dylan’s “Highway 61 Revisited,” Jerry Garcia’s “Deal,” and several Band covers.
