Hello all!
I'm new here to the forums, but obviously a HUGE Creed music fan!
I wanted to share with you that there is a new Creed Tribute Band out there! We are currently performing in Arizona and Texas. Our intent is to have a blast performing these great songs for an appreciative audience. We hope to help fill a void and continue to celebrate the legend of Creed music!!!
So a little bit about how this got started....
A couple years ago I was looking to join a band and met a phenomenal guitarist who was looking for a phenomenal drummer (lol). We came together because we both had the same musical taste and thought that was a good start.
When we got together for the first time...we played "Torn" by Creed. That was the first song we played together and it sounded really great. We were both big-time Creed music fans and it was a natural fit.
In those days our intentions were to write our own music and find a singer and bass player to complete the line-up. Our influences was heavy 80's guitar rock (Ozzy, Van Halen, Metellica, Skid Row, etc.) But in recent times we were both loving what this newer band Creed had done. Creeds' sound struck a nerve that reminded us why we played music.
In those first few meetings (jam sessions)...a mention would come up every now and then about one day starting a Creed Tribute band. Ha-ha we thought. So cheesy. lol
Well to make a long story a little shorter...about a year ago the guitarist and I went our separate ways for about 4-5 months. We stayed in touch, but we were stuck on what to do next.
In that down period, by chance I happened to meet a singer who told me he always wished he could sing in a Creed tribute band. HELLO!!! Are u serious!?! lol
It just so happened I already had my eye on a wonderful bass player who I briefly played with and was about to start a local cover band project with.
A few calls were made including a very special one to my good friend and most awesome guitarist...and the rest is history. We are now called "Weathered", and like to think we perform Creed songs to how they were intended to be performed. Live and LOUD!!!
Please know that we are not trying to be Creed, we just simply wanna celebrate one of America's greatest rock groups!
