WELD

Weld is not a cover band; Weld Is a worship band. In Weld, Aaron Goldstein and Eamon McGrath—two of Canada’s most highway-weary guitar-wielding songwriters—have conspired with Toronto's greatest rhythm section, Pete Landi and Anna Ruddick, to further celebrate, amplify and explore the songwriting of Neil Young. 

 

Focusing on “Zuma”, “Ragged Glory”, and the music from the Ditch Trilogy, Weld shines a light on the darkest, heaviest moments in Young’s career, doing so with not only the flannelly texture and raw energy of the world’s best bar band, but also with a calibre of playing that only a lifetime spent on the road can earn you. 

 

Weld redefines the concept of the cover, taking reinterpretations of audience favourites to new, bombastic, volume-soaked levels, and turning the songs of Neil Young into a cerebral, psychedelic, and unique live experience: one full of power, soul, and rust.
