Remember the first time you heard your favorite band? You might not have even been sure you liked them at the time but they grew on you with every listen. With every spin you started to feel more and more alive until you knew this was the band for you. Dillweed may just be one of these bands.
Sometimes folky, sometimes grungy, and at times even nerdy, these rockers use emotional lyrics that tend to contrast with the multi layered music they play. Dillweed consists of four down to earth guys who always treat their fans with respect. With an acute sense of direction they weave recurrent themes into something that is an acquired taste and isn't for everyone. Its all about good and honest music and that makes it ok to fly your freak flag!
Dillweed has been through a few fazes in all of the years its been around. Following the psychedelic self titled album, the ever evolving Dillweed has morphed again. This time taking a much more heavy rock approach. Sure the mellow songs are still there but the live band is out to kick ass and get people together for a good time.
Are you really interested in the band history? If so you should start by getting their CD.
