Acoustic Weezer Green Album Tribute

02/17/2009
. (PR) Many have enjoyed the brilliance of Weezer, with their quirky mannerisms and catchy pop melodies. Now eclectic indie-pop artist, Dylan Connor, looks to pay the ultimate fan tribute as he releases his Almost Green Album, a cover of Weezer's Green Album in its entirety.

Connor's interpretations are mostly acoustic based but have a hint of lead guitar to add a little punch, while his characteristic vocals are layered nicely to capture Weezer's original melodies. And despite the evident work that has gone into this recording Connor is offering Almost Green Album for download at no cost, as his motivation for creating it was purely as a fan and lover of Weezer's music.

For Connor this is just the next step in a journey that has taken him through The Burning Man Festival in Nevada, and after releasing Breakaway And Burn, Connor's second full-length album, on January 20th, he has now embarked on a tour throughout the Northeast United States.
