Brendan Weaver, a fourth generation Kalamazooan with multi-ethnic roots, creates an eclectic blend of folk rock, which reflects his focus on the values of environmentalism, family, social justice, and inner and outer peace. Brendan, now a resident of Nashville, TN, has a strong history in music, studying piano from a very young age. He plays acoustic and electric, and standard and octave, mandolins and accompanies his music with vocals. Brendan’s debut album, Mandocentric, was well received during his release party at Ravenwood Coffee in Kalamazoo in March of 2006.
