The WEEKS is one of my favorite bands out there. They hail from Jackson, Mississippi and now reside in Nashville.
They have signed on with Kings of Leon's record label.
I have brought them up in conversation before but never had a thread about them.
They have been working on some new songs but here are some from albums past, starting from oldest to newest.
Enjoy!

Comeback Cadillac is a song that I beg them to play whenever they are in town. They all tell me "keep askin, we'll eventually play it, lol.
Check out the album Easy, their latest one. I love it. Start it Up is on it and Grind Yr Teeth was an outtake from it.
They are doing an album release in the summer which I am excited about.
This is one of the bands that I have multiple setlists from. The first few shows they never had them and then they did.

Are you coming up to see them? They are bypassing Philly and only doing a 3 city album release Chitown, NYC and LA.
Take the train up, I'll buy you a beer.
Bluesy and metal songs. Comin Down live was great. Girls like you was another new one that was great live. They joked about writing this song a few years ago but didn't do anything w it and was worried because Maroon 5 had a song w the same title. They also mentioned that Dear Bo Jackson had the Mosquito on the cover and the Yeah yeah yeah's came out with their album Mosquito that same year.
I have an old Weeks shirt that I wear only to their shows and the band recognizes it and me in it, lol. They are always really friendly with me and my GF. Damien sat down with us during the listening party and talked about the album and what he has fun playing on it and it showed when they were on stage.
The new shirt for the occasion. Love the color on this.
I have a bunch of setlists from them and have been really fortunate in getting them signed too. This one, handwritten on a paper plate, Cyle joked about it being the "super rare paper plate edition", lol.
Brother in the Night and Grind yr Teeth are my favorites to hear live from them. The show was great as usual.
People need to check these guys out if you haven't yet.

Another note about the band. They were doing 2 nights here in NYC and they knew a few of us were doing both nights so they changed up the setlist. How do I know this? Cyle was mentioning this to a few of us and wanted a different show for us.
That is pretty friggin cool.
These guys are VERY approachable. They do enjoy talking and hanging with fans. It's why they are one of my favorites.
I loved Easy and first listen to Two Moons was good
they are getting better with each album!
Looks like they're touring with a keys/2nd guitar player again which is nice, I'll be seeing them on Friday in Philly. I've always preferred their live sound with 2 guitars.

Bobbie was a song they came up with and played live but never got to recording. I heard most of Easy before it was a record too as they played a bunch of them before the recordings. I like that though. Remember how excited you got when PJ played a new song and couldn't wait to get the album?
I think they will follow up with another album too. I know they were collecting funds to do an album and I hope this wasn't what they meant.
Were you watching the live streams on Fridays?
