Weathers
with support from Moontower, Shuba, and Carter Ace
A Weathers song is like a movie. When the band's co-lyricists Cameron Boyer and Cameron Olsen talk about their lives, they liken them to "a John Hughes Film." "I get a picture in my head of the story I want to tell," explains Boyer, a truly multi-disciplinary artist who has been making films as long as he has been making music.
Vocalist Cameron Boyer, guitarist Cameron Olsen and bassist Brennen Bates create finely crafted, introspective pop songs heavily inspired by the alternative culture of the 80s, 90s and 00s. Some of Boyer's earliest musical memories are of listening to The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds with his dad and Hot Fuss by the Killers, while Olsen was raised on a steady diet of Depeche Mode, Cheap Trick, Bryan Adams, and Guns 'N Roses.
~~~~~~~~
Weathers' darkly tinged, guitar-driven alt-rock songs like "Happy Pills" and "American Dream" paint a vivid picture of young people who "can't function without weed" struggling not only to find jobs, but also an identity. "Happy Pills" is an ironic indictment of dependency, as is "Sucker," which posits that lust for another person can be just as destructive as a lust for money or drugs if you're not confident in yourself. And "Brass Knuckles" is a warning not to go through life unprepared so you don't become reliant on anything or anyone. "It's a wake-up call to toughen up," Boyer says.
Despite the social commentary, Weathers' songs are ultimately filtered through the band's deeply personal lens. They are singing about themselves, their peers, and the characters they've met along their journey to becoming a band. In the songs, Weathers long for authenticity; for people to look up from their phones and make a real connection.
