A catalog
the room
already knows

Nobody has to be sold on Weezer. The Blue Album turned twenty-five years of kids into a choir — we put that choir in your room, then keep it there with the '90s and 2000s alt rock they grew up on.

Built-in singalong

Eighteen Weezer songs plus a rotating stack of era-matched alt rock. No dead air, no deep-cut-only sets — the whole night is songs people know the words to.

Bill-ready

We've anchored and supported packaged tribute nights alongside Foo Fighters, blink-182 and Smashing Pumpkins tributes. Drop us into a themed bill or build one around us.

Easy to run

Four players, standard backline, fast load-in, no production asks. We show up in matching tracksuits and get off stage on time.

Eighteen Weezer songs in rotation, anchored by the full Blue Album — My Name Is Jonas through Only in Dreams — plus a rotating stack of '90s and 2000s alt rock that keeps a full night moving without repeating a mood. Brewery afternoons lean hits-forward; late club sets go deeper into Pinkerton. Requests welcome — we probably know it.

Bio — copy & paste

Wrestle With Jimmy — Austin's Weezer cover band. The Blue Album, matching tracksuits, and a room that sings every word. — one line

Wrestle With Jimmy is Austin's Weezer cover band: four guys in matching blue tracksuits playing the Blue Album front to back, deep cuts off Pinkerton, and the '90s and 2000s alt rock that followed. They've played Mohawk, Come and Take It Live, Radio/East, Brisketfest, and breweries across Central Texas. — fifty words

Wrestle With Jimmy is Austin's Weezer cover band — and, more to the point, a reliable way to get a room singing. The four-piece plays the Blue Album front to back, pulls deep cuts off Pinkerton, and rounds out the night with the alt rock bangers the same crowd grew up on: the songs that made a generation of kids feel like it was okay to be a little weird.

Since forming in 2024 they've become a fixture on the Austin tribute circuit, playing Mohawk, Come and Take It Live, Radio/East, The Far Out Lounge and Hole in the Wall, plus brewery stages including Independence, Meanwhile, Central Machine Works and Still Austin Whiskey Co. Festival and anniversary bills include Brisketfest and Independence Brewing's 21st. They travel well: matching Adidas tracksuits, a fast load-in, and an unconditional love for Weezer. — one hundred fifty words
