	Tina Weymouth - Biography - AOL Music
		Although Weymouth first picked up a guitar at the age of 14, she failed to stick with it, despite developing a deep admiration for such '60s hitmakers as the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Peter Paul & Mary.
		Frantz and Weymouth continued to issue albums with the Tom Tom Club during this time (1983's Close to the Bone, 1988's Boom Boom Chi Boom Boom), but none proved to be as commercially successful as their debut.
		Little was heard from Weymouth musically during the early to mid '90s, as she concentrated primarily on producing other artists along with Frantz (Angelfish's self-titled debut, the Happy Monday's Yes, Please, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs' Rey Azucar, and a few years prior, Ziggy Marley's Conscious Party and One Bright Day).

		With petite and lovely Tina Weymouth commanding her bass guitar, and the bizarre stage presence of David Byrne, they were a natural hit on the newly founded MTV cable station.
		With Tina's voice and an array of talented musicians in the tropical setting of the Bahamas, Franz and Weymouth created a new sound, an eclectic hybrid of music they called "fresh" and "freestyle." It appealed to a new audience interested in dance music, R & B, and a burgeoning interest in hip-hop.
		Weymouth, who at 55 is still stunning, becomes visually animated when she speaks about the state of the music industry today.

		Nearly a quarter of a century later, Weymouth reflects on days long past from the sprawling, barnlike home in Connecticut she shares with two teenage sons and husband/drummer/fellow Head Chris Frantz, the other core member of the newly revitalized Tom Tom Club.
		Weymouth stood out in a male-dominated rock world as a legitimate band member who actually played an instrument besides the tambourine.
		Resembling a shaggy Prince Valiant with collar-length hair, Weymouth took up the bass, and she, Frantz, and Byrne began playing as a kind of experimental troupe; after graduation, they moved into a New York City apartment together and formed Talking Heads.

	Tina Weymouth: Ahead of the Game
		Tina got the bass slot by default but applied her musical background (and good ear from playing music since age twelve) to the task at hand.
		Although Tina was not visually in the forefront of the band, she wrote, produced and arranged a number of the band’s tunes before they went their separate ways in the late 80s.
		Tina’s musical experimentation touched on syncopated rhythms, rap, and synth bass, to name a few.

		Laura's co-write of "Suboceana" with Chris and Tina was a happy success on the dance floor, but with a new baby of her own, nothing could entice her to join a tour that began with a well-remembered three-week residency at CBGBs.
		Chris and Tina veered off in search of a new form, surprising everyone who saw the quartet perform with their raw, stripped-down, 'garage band' sound, several years before the grunge movement would re-popularize that 60s sound.
		We be musical vegetables In 1998, Chris and Tina began writing for and with the newest member of the Tom Tom crew, soul singer extraordinaire Charles Pettigrew, formerly of Charles and Eddie, who sang their hit singles "Would I Lie To You" and "Shine" in the Tom Tom Club Oktoberfest tour later that year.

	Bass Player - Tina Weymouth
		Onstage and in the studio, her steadfast commitment to the group aesthetic has moved her from bass to synth bass to guitar and back to bass--all in service of the song, and all tackled with an equally childlike innocence and gut-level adherence to the groove.
		In 1981, on brief hiatus from the band, Weymouth and Frantz channeled their excess inspiration into an all-hands-on-deck side project that was as relaxed as the Heads had become rigid.
		Tina still owns the bare-bones, "heavy-duty" stage rig she assembled in 1979.

		Here's what Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth and David Byrne did when they were working their way up:
		Weymouth was an individual example of punk attitude, a self-taught bassist who improved her technique through "willed optimism" and endless listening to Jaco Pastorius, James Jamerson and Bootsy Collins, among others.

		Following the release of the Talking Heads' fourth album, REMAIN IN LIGHT, the band's husband-and-wife rhythm section, drummer Chris Frantz and bassist Tina Weymouth, opted to record tracks in the Caribbean on the invitation of Islands Records founder Chris Blackwell, thus the Tom Tom Club was born.
		Joined by Talking Heads touring guitarist Adrian Belew, guitarist Monte Brown, percussionist Steven Stanley, and Weymouth's sisters, Laura and Lani, on background vocals, Frantz and Weymouth crafted a highly rhythmic, groove-laden album that incorporated world music (most obviously on the buoyant, African-tinged "L'Elephant") and hip-hop (the playful "Wordy Rappinghood," a kindred spirit to Blondie's "Rapture").

		The pages of "Anna Karenina" contain Tolstoy's renowned quip, "All happy families resemble one another while every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." His platitude also applies to those artificial family-like groupings called rock bands.
		Led by art school dropout David Byrne, and manned by Army brats Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz, as well as Harvard architectural graduate Jerry Harrison, Talking Heads' repertoire included everything from edgy love songs about Washington bureaucracy to African-influenced techno chants that could turn one's ears into savannas and jungles.
		Talking Heads were born of the punk movement, but with their Brady Bunch haircuts and LaCoste shirts, they were obviously not of that brood.

		As students at the Rhode Island School of Design, David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, and Chris Frantz founded (in this case, it is more appropriate to say "founded" than "formed," given the frequent coming and going of additional members over the years) the Talking Heads.
		Their big break came in 1974 when they opened for The Ramones at New York's CBGB's.
		Those who are desperate for more can check out Byrne's occasionally brilliant solo releases or the Weymouth and Frantz's pop-dance side project the Tom Tom Club (though everyone should stay away from their work as The Heads).

		s members of Talking Heads took their first vacation from one another, husband-and-wife team Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth clearly had the most fun with the exotic, smartalecky, and eminently danceable Tom Tom Club.
		Their debut album turned out to be more than just a good way to let out steam when “Genius of Love” became a crossover dance hit and pushed the album into platinum sales.
		If the band has a theme, it’s “arty girls just want to have fun too” - the girls in this case being the four Weymouth sisters, who share vocals with a cute, slumber party sloppiness while repetitive rhythm lines fool you into thinking there’s something heavy afoot.
