Weston Brown Band: Just The Facts, Sirs

Each Wednesday, Rocks Off arbitrarily appoints one lucky local performer or group "Artist of the Week," bestowing upon them all the fame and grandeur such a lofty title implies. Know a band or artist that isn't awful? Email their particulars to [email protected].

If we were to divvy up the Artist of the Week roll call, everyone that's been featured would inevitably fall into one of three categories:

  • These guys are pretty good. Let's digest them for a few days (or weeks) and see what happens.
  • These guys are interesting/quirky/odd/wacky/zany/incendiary. Let's feature them next week and see what happens in the Comments section.
  • Man, these guys are damned good. Let's feature them immediately, heap praise on them, then cross our fingers and hope they get famous and remember us and buy us a car or boat or animal that's on the endangered species list or something.

Weston Brown Band fits into that third category.

WBB is a two-year-old folksy, acoustic rock quartet whose most obvious strength is that they manage to roll up a genuine small-town charm into a big-time and marketable sound. So we reached out to the sirs to cut it up about their live shows, the best thing they see about themselves and when and where you can see them next. That Pacific giant glass frog is as good as ours.
