Flutist Weisberg overcomes odds to headlining rock career
Tim Weisberg, a lead flutist from Southern California, defied past doubts about a flute led rock act. He pursued a professional path for a decade, producing ten albums, a Dan Fogelberg collaboration that went double platinum, and a solo project Night Rider. He credits proving that flute can appeal to a mass audience, likening his trajectory to Jean Luc Ponty in aiming for mainstream success despite scarce demand for lead flute in rock.
