the weepies

Last month, Mark Hoppus of Blink 182 teamed up with Spin.com for a weekly column "Hopp on Pop: Mark Hoppus' Pick of the Week."  One of the first bands he chose was none other than fun., and this week he went with another Nettwerk band: The Weepies!

When asked why The Weepies rock, Hoppus explained, ""'Rock' might not be the right word, but they definitely rule... the Weepies are folksy, indie-rocky, singery/songwritery little three-minute pieces of awesome. Quiet, acoustic, luscious and beautiful. Great late-night music."

Watch for more news from The Weepies and their upcoming new album!

Nettwerk Music Group will release the official motion picture soundtrack to the upcoming romantic comedy Adam on July 28; the film opens on July 29. The album features tracks by such popular Nettwerk artists as The Weepies, Lucy Schwartz, and a previously unreleased track from Miranda Lee Richards (“Beautiful Day”).

The soundtrack also includes two tracks from Joshua Radin, including one brand new song, “When You Find Me,” that was written by Radin specifically for the film and features vocals from Nettwerk artist Maria Taylor.  Additionally, there are five newly composed tracks from award-winning composer Christopher Lennertz.
