is coming to Penticton this weekend, and whether or not the weather co-operates, for them it Feels Like Summer.

The latest single is a sneak preview of the next album the Los Angeles rockers are working on, but with a busy festival season putting a slight damper on the recording schedule. Bassist Scott Shriner said they are hoping for a fall release.

There have been indications the new Weezer record is taking on some stylistic changes, but as far as the single being indicative of that, Shriner said there is still tweaking to be done.

香蕉视频直播淲e recorded it differently than we香蕉视频直播檝e recorded a lot of stuff. It got produced differently and we香蕉视频直播檙e still kind of working on the song while we香蕉视频直播檙e performing it live,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said. 香蕉视频直播淭hat version is out there, but I kind of also feel like by the time the record is being put together we will have more of a band version that will surpass that.香蕉视频直播�

The recording and production are taking on a different spin with some songs being recorded as a group, while some are made without the band members seeing or talking to each other.

香蕉视频直播淎 producer goes and gets with each one of us, we add stuff and they mix it up. Then it gets taken a step farther and another producer will go and chop that up. I used to call them remixes, I guess, where you take all these existing tracks and kind of creatively rearrange or re-engineer it,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said.

Coming off a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album for last year香蕉视频直播檚 The White Album, Weezer continues to be one of the most productive bands out there.

香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e playing a couple of the singles off (The White Album). It香蕉视频直播檚 exciting to play those and then also be playing a new song, Feels Like Summer, on this run and hopefully we香蕉视频直播檒l be adding more newer songs throughout the summer. So it should be an exciting year,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said.

With a jam packed tour schedule, there are two things Shriner cannot hit the road without 香蕉视频直播� instruments and caffeine.

香蕉视频直播淚 need a lot of coffee. I roast a bunch of coffee at home before we leave for a run. Then I bring a bunch of stuff to grind it, cook it, and shape it and do things with it. So caffeine and instruments that香蕉视频直播檚 what I香蕉视频直播檓 running on,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said.

With 10 albums under their belt, Weezer has a lot of material to pull from when putting together a live show.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 gotten to the point in our career where we can pretty much play nothing but, I香蕉视频直播檓 not going to say all hits, but fairly recognizable songs most people have heard on the radio or Spotify or whatever. That can take up 60 or 70 minutes, just one or two songs from each album,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said.

With some small adjustments differing from region to region, Weezer looks at what may be popular in certain areas, but the set list at their shows has an essential core.

香蕉视频直播淲e try to shape it a little bit, but really we香蕉视频直播檙e just kind of busy playing whatever our newest product is we香蕉视频直播檙e trying to get out there and playing kind of the hits. That takes up the whole night,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said. 香蕉视频直播淏ut that香蕉视频直播檚 cool. I香蕉视频直播檓 not complaining, it香蕉视频直播檚 a good position to be in.

His favourite songs to play are ever-changing, but Shriner said Say It Ain香蕉视频直播檛 So was the song that got him to fall in love with Weezer in the first place.

香蕉视频直播淭hat will never get old, for me, to play that song,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said.

He is looking forward to playing Europe in the fall and visiting some tour spots he has never been to, including Saskatoon, Dawson Creek and Penticton.

香蕉视频直播淚 love going to places I香蕉视频直播檝e never been whether they香蕉视频直播檙e out in the middle of nowhere. In the middle of an oilfield or in a mountain resort. I feel like the world is so huge I香蕉视频直播檓 really happy to go places I haven香蕉视频直播檛 been,香蕉视频直播� Shriner said.
