 * (This page is about the New Zealand band. For the British band of the same name, see Weeds).

The Weeds were a New Zealand band from Dunedin consisting of Michael Morley (bass, vocals), Shayne Carter (guitar, vocals), Robert Scott (guitar, bass, vocals) and on drums, Jeff Hardford, Chris Healey or John Collie. The group sometimes would play in their underwear and in 1985 they released the raucous folk-blues ‘Wheatfields’ as a one-off single, flipped with a live take on Elvis Presley’s ‘Trouble’ on Flying Nun Records.
