About Verner Caliper

  We are an unsigned rock band from Reynoldsburg, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus. We do all our own material, and play out around the Columbus area. Our influences include a vast array of music makers, making a list too long for this paragraph. But I could just say from Rush to Rage Against the Machine to Radiohead. We grew up together and have been playing in Verner Caliper for ten years.  That time has allowed for us to form our distinct sound. Our music can be busy at times and catchy at others. You will always hear the sounds of andy clark and andy weisbarth, combining fitting rock riffs and busy bass lines, to their mesa amps, accompanying andy clark's unique and original voice stylings that surprisingly flow with the off the wall chord progressions. You will also hear jimmy weisbarth, our drummer who is not following any trends. He will keep you on your feet as well as impress you if you see us live.  Our song writing style is not always traditional. We don't always follow the standard form.  Verner Caliper is outside the box, original, hard, progressive, instrumental, rock.

The Creation

  Originally, in 1995, andy the bass player was on guitar and vocals while andy the guitar player was on bass for half the time. They would switch up and andy the bass player would then be on bass while andy the guitar player would be on guitar and vocals.  After deciding they both couldn't be front man, and Verner Caliper needed a dedicated and devoted bass player, andy the bass player took up bass. Nonetheless, it took him 9 more years to put down the pick! Anyways, in the first year while the two andy's played and wrote songs together andy the bass player's brother, so as to fill the much needed position, picked up the drums, and the three, after a decade, have experienced everything a band could together except go on tour.
