Details:
This year has seen Tweed expand their fan base to thousands of new fans! Their songs ''Lie For Me'' and ''Thought About You'' went to #8 and #19 respectively for ALL Adult Alternative music in North America on top MP3 sites, with the band''s music also approaching 200,000 downloads and plays.
U2''s tour company hired them to play a warm-up show at the Hard Rock Cafe, and Tweed has appeared with Hootie & the Blowfish, Jadestone, & Cave. The band was also featured as an up-and-coming artist on the ''NetMusic Countdown with David Lawrence'', a nationwide radio program that features the TOP20 artists in the country.
After years of playing South Florida clubs in different bands, Tweed was formed in 1996 by decade-long friends Jay Whetsel (vox-guitars), John Presti Jr. (drums & percussion), Tony Smith (bass), and Scott Jordan (lead guitar). From the first time Tweed''s original music began to take shape it has been driven and uncompromising, with the result being the captivating Stone Prophecy.
Jay''s distinctive voice and illustrative lyrics along with the band''s engaging talents challenges listeners label them in just one genre of music. To realize their vision, they have drawn from influences of modern and classic rock, jazz and funk. In 1999 they added Jonah Goldberg on lead guitar to enhance their unique sound.
After they released their first album, Tweed was one of over 360 bands to enter South Florida''s ZETA 94.9 rock radio station''s ZETA ROCKS competition, and was one of only 24 chosen for the finals.
PRESS REVIEWS:
https://www.tradebit.com''s editor writes: ''So radio-ready, it''s not a stretch to imagine any of Tweed''s warm alternative songs playing in the opening scene of a feel-good, twenty-something sitcom. The vocals wrap around you like a thick fuzzy blanket while the groovin'' rhythm, sultry sax and wah-wah powered guitars rock you to sleep.''...
MP3 site station manager of ''Music of True Quality'' raves: Tweed are really worth listening to. They have everything a band could want - melody, power and ability. ''Lie for Me'' is such a catchy number that I put it straight on the station after just one listen. Weave Tweed into your day...
JAM MAGAZINE''s Richard Proplesch writes: ''Tweed approaches the adult pop market with novel style ignoring overworked Hootie-isms. Thankfully theres never any meandering scatology since band prefers to use lots of different sonic textures and quick change-up styles.''
