The band currently consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Andrew Reilley, lead guitarist and backing vocalist Bob Reilley, bassist and backing vocalist Skip Angelle, and drummer Josiah Menard. HistoryMeriwether released their debut full-length LP, Make Your Move, in 2005 on start-up label GVE Records and sold over 10,000 copies and played over 300 shows in one year to promote the album by booking shows via MySpace. The band signed to Suretone Records in 2006 and the album Make Your Move was re-released in 2007, minus the songs "Aye Julian", "Girl In Mexico", & "And Tonic ER." Then Meriwether proceeded to record their sophomore effort, entitled Sons of Our Fathers, with Grammy-nominated producer Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, Three Days Grace, etc.) and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge (Underoath, AFI, etc.). After the album was finished, Meriwether continued to tour, while the release date was set back numerous times, until finally it was announced that Meriwether was no longer with Suretone. The album was never officially released, but it is currently available for free download on a site known as Bandcamp. The band recorded and released a new album, Plug in the Snakes, at the end of 2009 independently at Little House Studios in Baton Rouge. Meriwether played their last show with Band members guitarist, Steve Bergeron and bassist, Josh Barbier July 16, 2010. Sam Anderson left to play drums for the band 10 Years. In 2012, Meriwether went back in with original producer of Make Your Move, Rhett Mouton, and recorded the EP, Save Our Souls. In December 2013, the 10 year anniversary of the band, Meriwether performed a show at the Varsity Theatre in their hometown of Baton Rouge with all original members. Currently Andrew Reilley, lead vocalist for the band, is continuing Meriwether as well as multiple new projects, such as Discovery Corps, which released 2 songs titled "Call The Cops" and "Dr. Midnight", debuting the live act in Austin, TX at SXSW 2011.
