The Weakerthans are a four-(sometimes six)-piece band from Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada), and they formed their blended style of punk, rock, folk, and country sonnets in 1997. Having released five studio albums with the latest being a 2010 collaboration with Canadian singer-songwriter Jim Bryson, their progressively political personality and tunes have garnered international attention from all walks of life. Known for their lyrical ingenuity and honesty, The Weakerthans carve a melodic and introspective path fit for the souls of prairie farmers as well as the revolutionary hearts of punk bandits.
