The Weasels

The Weasels are an American rock band based in Albany, New York and active since the mid-1980s. The group's core members are Doctor Fun (vocals, saxophones, keyboards, Onoyodel, lyrics and songwriting) and Roy Weasell (electric and acoustic guitars, vocals, keyboards, trombone, roto-vibe, mandolin, lyrics and songwriting). Chris Graf (keyboards, vocals, bass guitar, samples, E-flat horn, trumpet, musique concrete, gadgets, production and engineering) was also a co-founder and long-standing member of the group's creative nucleus.
The Weasels have released seven records since their inception and have played approximately 40 live shows. They have been compared in print most often to Frank Zappa’s Mothers of Invention and Steely Dan, based on their melodic jazz and blues based music, elaborate horn and vocal arrangements, deployment of highly regarded session players, open-ended and suspended compositional style, exacting recording standards, and intelligent use of sardonic, sarcastic, historic, political and scatological themes in their lyrics.
==Early history==
The group was founded when Fun responded to a newspaper advertisement placed by Graf and Weasell, who were attempting to find a keyboard and saxophone player for a planned live band. For the first few years of their existence, however, the founding Weasels remained firmly home-bound, writing and recording tracks that would later appear on the discs ''Meat the Weasels Volume I: Fondue Cabaret'' and ''GenerationXcrement.''
In 1992, The Weasels submitted a tape to the then-annual ''Metroland'' Ear Jam contest, and were selected as one of four finalists, despite the fact that no live version of the band existed. They quickly assembled and rehearsed a stage presentation of their material, and won generally positive audience and critical reviews for their performance, despite losing the contest to a defunct industrial metal band.
