SCREECHING WEASEL

SCREECHING WEASEL are an American Punk Rock band consisting of Ben Weasel (vocals), Gianluca "Ginger" Panero (guitar), Mike Hunchback (guitar), Zach "Poutine" Brandner (bass) and Pierre Marche (drums) founded in 1986 by Ben Weasel and John Jughead. SCREECHING WEASEL are originally from the Chicago suburb of Prospect Heights, Illinois. Since their formation, SCREECHING WEASEL have reformed several times with various lineup changes. Ben Weasel has been the only constant member, though Jughead was present in every incarnation of the band until 2009. Other prominent members include guitarist/bassist Dan Vapid and drummer Dan Panic, who have each appeared on six of the band's studio albums, and GREEN DAY bassist Mike Dirnt who appeared on one.

SCREECHING WEASEL have recorded 14 studio albums so far, splitting time between a number of famous independent record labels such as Lookout! Records and Fat Wreck Chords. Despite never achieving mainstream success, a number of largely popular acts cite them as influential.

The band remains active, though tour plans were postponed for a number of years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with their last shows prior being played in 2019. In 2024, they announced plans to resume live shows in 2025 and shows scheduled in Chicago for March 2025 sold out in less than 1 hour. 2025 also brought about the addition of new Italian guitarist, Ginger Panero. Ben Weasel has stated, "Screeching Weasel is never breaking up again. The band dies when I do."
