SUMMARY:The Weight Band Featuring members of The Band and Levon Helm Band
DESCRIPTION:Performing Classic Songs of “THE BAND\,” (The Weight\, Up On 
 Cripple Creek)\, as well as their current album\, Shines Like Gold\, The
  Weight Band is led by Jim Weider\, a 15 year former member of The Band 
 and the Levon Helm Band. The Weight Band originated in 2013 inside the f
 amed Woodstock barn of Levon Helm. Weider was inspired by Helm to carry 
 on the musical legacy of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group. Years of 
 touring have seen The Weight Band revive “The Woodstock Sound\,” keeping
  the spirit of Americana/Roots Rock alive for audiences of all ages. The
 y continue to keep the sound vibrant by releasing new music\, evidenced 
 by the current albums Shines Like Gold and World Gone Mad (February 2018
 ). Their live set features Weight Band songs from their albums as well a
 s fan favorites from The Band’s treasured catalog\, including “Up On Cri
 pple Creek\,” “The Weight\,” and “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.” 
 The Weight Band includes Brian Mitchell (The Levon Helm Band)\, Michael 
 Bram (Jason Mraz)\, Matt Zeiner (Dickey Betts Band)\, and Albert Rogers 
 (The Jim Weider Band). With a US and international tour schedule slated 
 for 2019 and beyond\, The Weight Band compliments The Band’s timeless le
 gacy while pushing the music forward for new audiences. Billboard\, Reli
 x Magazine\, and others have taken notice\, as have generations of The B
 and fans who have yearned for new material since their last studio relea
 se almost 20 years ago. The Boston Globe proclaims World Gone Mad “strik
 es a chord between past and present\,” and the Chicago Tribune says “The
  Weight carries on where The Band left off.” Goldmine Magazine cited Wor
 ld Gone Mad as one of the best indie albums of 2018\, saying the group “
 effectively revives and recreates The Band’s original rustic sound as a 
 successor (and) keeps that arcane spirit alive!” Jim Weider (guitar\, ma
 ndolin and vocals)\, is a former member of The Band. From 1985 to 2000\,
  Weider replaced Robbie Robertson as their lead guitarist\, writing song
 s and performing on their three studio albums\, Jericho\, High on the Ho
 g\, and Jubilation. He toured internationally with original Band members
  Levon Helm\, Garth Hudson\, and Rick Danko for fifteen years and was fe
 atured with them on numerous albums\, films\, videos\, and in television
  appearances. Michael Bram (drums and vocals)\, is a soulful singer and 
 multi-instrumentalist. Bram splits his time drumming for The Weight Band
  and Jason Mraz. He has been a staple in the New York music scene for al
 most two decades. Other career highlights include working with Willie Ne
 lson and recording tracks with Bob Margolin of The Last Waltz fame. Bria
 n Mitchell (keyboards and vocals)\, is a current member of Levon Helm’s 
 Midnight Ramble Band and is well known within the circles of the music i
 ndustry and beyond for his solo career and his high profile collaboratio
 ns. He has recorded and performed with some of music’s most respected ar
 tists\, Levon Helm\, Bob Dylan\, Al Green\, B.B. King\, and countless ot
 hers. Matt Zeiner (keyboard and vocals)\, began his career with Hartford
