A group of Midwest musicians, and best of friends, got together to play some live music in their hometown of Sparta, Wisconsin, on the Eve of Thanksgiving, 2012. That was a magical night of music and it was also the birth of Merry Weathers. With two singer/songwriters, Stacy Hanson and Brian Bethke, both on deck as front-men, there was not a shortage of fun original tunes to be played, and the band blossomed with a combination of original music, and some well-loved covers.
