The Weight Band originated in 2012 when Jim Weider and Randy Ciarlante, both former members of The Band, were performing “Songs of The Band” with Garth Hudson, Jimmy Vivino and Byron Isaacs. After receiving overwhelming support from fans, Weider, Ciarlante, and Isaacs decided to continue the tradition of performing songs from The Band and invited Brian Mitchell and Marty Grebb (who contributed to both the Jericho and Jubilation albums) to complete their sound. The Weight Band later added Albert Rogers and Michael Bram, both with deep connections to The Band and Levon Helm. Since then, The Weight Band has been touring the country, recording new music, and keeping the spirit of The Band alive. Byron Isaacs, now former bass player for The Weight Band, is now a member of The Lumineers. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
