Weezer in Columbus

Weezer are an American alternative-rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1992. Led by singer and guitarist Rivers Cuomo, they became known through Weezer, commonly called the Blue Album, and songs including “Buddy Holly,” “Undone – The Sweater Song” and “Say It Ain’t So.” Pinkerton, “Hash Pipe” and “Island in the Sun” became further central parts of their catalogue. In 2018, Weezer co-headlined a North American tour with Pixies. They later played stadiums alongside Green Day and Fall Out Boy on the Hella Mega Tour. The 2024 Voyage to the Blue Planet arena tour featured a full performance of the Blue Album, supported by the Flaming Lips and Dinosaur Jr. Weezer played Rock in Rio in Rio de Janeiro in 2019 and performed at Glastonbury Festival in 2025.
