THE WEIGHT BAND

After years of touring, The Weight Band has released a new album of original material, packaged for today’s vibrant Americana base and capturing The Band’s rich musical tradition. Released in February 2018, World Gone Mad is an Americana/Roots Rock masterpiece of the Woodstock sound.

The Weight Band originated in 2013 inside the famed Woodstock, New York barn of Levon Helm when Jim Weider and Randy Ciarlante — both former members of The Band — performed “Songs of The Band” with Band founder, Garth Hudson, alongside Jimmy Vivino and Byron Isaacs. Inspired to carry on the legacy of the unforgettable rock group, Weider, Ciarlante and Isaacs began performing fan favorites from The Band catalog to audiences across the country, inviting Brian Mitchell and Marty Grebb to complete their sound. The Weight Band later added Albert Rogers, Michael Bram and Matt Zeiner to make up their current lineup, featuring songs from The Band's treasured catalog as well as new original tracks that complement The Band’s timeless legacy.

BRAD COLE

The songs of Brad Cole address the ups and downs of the human condition with both wit and raw insight. His passionate and distinctive delivery of roots-based folk music glides on an eclectic mix of old school jazz, rhythm & blues and rock, moving listeners in a direction that is both unexpected, yet perfectly familiar.

Touring consistently over the last 10 years has brought Cole to many great stages such as Lincoln Center, Wrigley Field, City Winery (Chicago, Boston, Nashville), The Hotel Cafe, The Ark, Rockwood Music Hall, The Cutting Room, Landmark on Main, The Steven Talkhouse, as well numerous festivals including recent tours of the UK and Ireland. Cole has shared the stage with marquee performers including Chris Stapleton, Ingrid Michaelson, Hothouse Flowers, Shovels And Rope, The James Hunter Six and Dave Davies of the Kinks, to name a few.

Cole’s cut his teeth performing in the Chicago club scene, initially performing along side artists that make up the fabric of the city’s musical legacy including Junior Wells, Otis Rush, Uncle Tupelo and the Smashing Pumpkins. His several Chicago-based bands including Treatment, The Second Story, Psycholove, and Check with Lucy.

Cole’s numerous side projects include: the jazz / blues project Bossa Blue and the acclaimed trio Cole, Nakoa & Treacher. In 2016, his life and music became the subject of a short film titled Cole Soul by award-winning film maker Steven Weiss. In 2021, Cole launched his Sci-Fi musical Songs From The Moon as a 1 man show and as a podcast series. Currently Cole lives in New York’s Hudson Valley.
