He joined the reformed version of The Band in 1985 to replace original guitarist Robbie Robertson.A native of Woodstock, New York, Weider was born in 1951 and began playing guitar at age 11. Some of his early influences included Chuck Berry, James Burton and Scotty Moore. While still a teenager in Woodstock, he became acquainted with Levon Helm and was exposed to The Band's music. Weider went on to become an accomplished studio session player in cities such as Atlanta and Nashville, but eventually returned to Woodstock and was invited to become The Band's sole guitarist in 1985, remaining until the group's dissolution in 2000 following the death of Rick Danko. Jim played with Levon Helm Band at the Midnight Rambles at Levon's studio and on the road, and will continue on with the band in memory of Levon. Jim also has a guitar groove band, PrOJECT PERCoLAT0R, which has albums and live shows, and members of Levon's band join Jim for BLUE CHICKEN for fun shows.Jim is a master of classic Telecaster, still playing the '52 Tele that he has used for decades, and traditional blues slide guitar techniques.

Born in 1950 and like Jim Weider, started playing guitar at age 11. In his teens Andy Powell actually built his own electric guitars. A Connecticut resident since the 1970s when he first moved here as recording artist with MCA Universal and later, Atlantic Records, Powell and Wishbone Ash even recorded an album in Connecticut, titled New England. With 43 years of experience recording and touring under his belt, there is no situation in rock that Powell has not experienced, from playing clubs and theaters to large stadiums. A brief period of session work in the 1970s even saw him play with Beatles George Harrison and Ringo Starr. The Wishbone Ash classic twin lead sound has often been copied but never surpassed. With over 23 studio albums to its credit plus many live albums, Wishbone Ash has certainly influenced bands like Ireland's Thin Lizzy and heavy metal outfits like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. Wishbone Ash has most definitely taken it further than most, as acknowledged by the UK music press and later Rolling Sone magazine after the worldwide success of their 1972 classic album Argus. First introduced to US audiences as opener on the Who's Tommy tour, Wishbone would later play stadiums and arenas in their own right with many US acts opening for them, like ZZ Top, Bob Seeger, Aerosmith and even the Boss, Bruce Springsteen. Andy is most closely associated with the Gibson Flying V guitar, though as a once-avid collector, he has owned just about every kind of electric guitar including, of course, Fender and Gretsch. Like Jim he owns a 1952 Telecaster which he's played as well as the Flying V on virtually all the Wishbone Ash albums. As a teenager Powell was first influenced by the music of the Shadows in the UK, in particular, the twang of Hank B. Marvin. Instrumental rock, folk rock and then later all the sounds from the States - Stax, Motown and blues, all figured in forming the basis of Powell's style. Still playing annually in excess of 150 dates worldwide, Wishbone Ash most recently toured Japan and also South Africa. Analog Man Analog Man is one of the oldest boutique effects manufacturers, and both Jim and Andy use several of their pedals, in particular, the legendary King of Tone overdrive pedal.Here are Jim and Andy with their '52 Teles during a visit to the Analog Man shop.
