The Weathered Road is literally named for the road that brought everyone together, Weather Ridge Road. It also symbolizes the struggle that all musicians go through in their dreams of making music their life's work. There is a fusion of several genres that each member brings to the band. Libby is an old-time appalachia fiddle player and an all-state choir vocalist as well as a one-time Maryland state champion fiddler. She is the soul and voice of The Weathered Road. Christopher Bell has been around singer-songwriter's his entire life. He brings a style influenced by folk and fingerstyle musicians such as Roger Hoard. Together they have begun to create a sound that is unique and fresh. All music is fusion. They take their collective roots and fuse them together and create a sound that is their own. Their music is a roller-coaster of emotions. This is a band that approaches music as mood and tries to encapsulate the feeling of being in that single moment. The Weathered Road is a rite of passage in itself.
