Five weeks after forming, they had their first gig, opening for Dogstar
at Raji’s Bar and Ribshack on Hollywood Boulevard. Weezer began playing
clubs to small audiences around L.A. and recording home-demos. Soon the
band began to receive attention from various A&R reps, and were
signed on June 26, 1993 by Todd Sullivan, an A&R rep from Geffen
Records. The band was signed onto the DGC label (which later became
Interscope). Creating “The Blue Album” (1993-1994) The self-titled debut, Weezer, commonly referred to as The Blue Album,
was released May 10, 1994. “Undone - The Sweater Song”, “Buddy Holly”
and “Say It Ain’t So” were released as singles. The album was produced
by former The Cars frontman Ric Ocasek.
During the recording of the Blue Album, Jason Cropper left the band to
take care of his future wife, who was pregnant with their first child.
Jason was replaced by Brian Bell, a then bassist from a band called Carnival Art.
