Career[]
Weatherman was born in Raleigh, North Carolina and now lives in Virginia. He started Corrosion of Conformity with Mike Dean and Reed Mullin in 1982 where they began as a hardcore punk and crossover thrash band, but later transformed to a more stoner sludge sound with the addition of Pepper Keenan in 1989. They reformed without Keenan as a three-piece consisting of the original founding members in 2010. However, Keenan returned in 2015.
Weatherman also played bass guitar in the Raleigh-based band No Labels with Reed Mullin, Ricky Hicks, and Wayne Kerr. They formed in February 1982 and faded away during 1984.
