Featherweight
Arguably the first skramz band from my small town, or atleast the first ‘modern’ one, these guys had a good run for two years before living up the inevitable short lifespan that is a Skramz band.
Check them out. You won’t be disappointed.
small town? where from?

From the end of December 2011. This was the first time the touring lineup of Featherweight (minus Sean, plus Franko) was in the same room together (from Mass, NY, and Pittsburgh) since tour in June 2011.
This happened as well:
Stay posted on Ben and Zach’s Blue Tape Collective page. That’s where any news regarding Featherweight will show up.
I printed these guys up the other day. First time I’ve done semi-serious printmaking in quite some time. These photos of Featherweight were shot last summer in Sean’s basement.

Ultimate list by Big Earl Glennon. Played with a lot of these bands when we existed.
Surprise
lol
Featherweight, words cannot justify how much emotion was in that room the whole night, Frontman Sean Ahern took a few minutes, before they played, to give a sincere thanks to all the specific people and specific bands that have helped them, supported them or just been good to them, ofcourse thanked his and the rest of Featherweight’s families, and any ex members(whether they were there or not). Victor, the original bass player switched off with Zac, another bass player apart of the band throughout the night. They played their whole first demo, Family Ties and Flooded Eyes which seriously paved the way for the music they presently made. They played songs they never recorded, Sean handed the mic to different people, including myself, throughout the night.
I’ve just never been able to correctly word how much emotion Featherweight puts into their music. How hard they’ve worked to achieve what they have and how much they care about the people around them and the scene they’ve built up. They ended with the song Nightcrawlers off of their summer tour sampler, one of my favorite songs. Some of the most emotional 5 minutes I’ve ever been through.
My stomach hurts from screaming, I have no voice, I’m sore and exhausted, but last night will live in infamy.
Featherweight will be missed by all those who got to experience them. On a bright side, ex-members have made a new band that should be playing shows in the winter, more will be posted soon.
