Weezer is an American alternative rock band. They formed in 1992 in Los Angeles, California. They have gone through several member-changes, mainly with the bassist. The only “Original” members still in the band are Rivers Cuomo and Pat Wilson, though many consider Brian Bell an original member, as he has been with the band ever since their first album, where original guitarist Jason Cropper left the group. The original line-up was Rivers Cuomo (guitar/vocals), Jason Cropper (guitar), Matt Sharp (bass), and Pat Wilson (drums/percussion). The first member to leave was Jason Cropper, who was replaced by Brian Bell in early 1993. Next was Matt Sharp, who left in 1998 and was replaced by Mickey Welsh. Welsh left in 2001 and was replaced by current bassist Scott Shriner. Over their 16-year career (from 1992 – 2008), they have had 6 studio-records, 3 of which have gone platinum, and they have sold 7 million records under the DGC label. They have long been sited as innovators and populizers of nerd rock along with bands like They Might Be Giants.
