Formed in mid 1995 in Wellington, Weta did nothing but tour until October 1997. They have shared the stage with Pacifier, Soundgarden, Bailterspace, Everclear and The Foo Fighters.
Weta gave Pacifier a run for their money in the Wellington Rockers Loud stakes until splitting up mid 2001.
Weta first debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Singles on 8 August 1999 with the song Natural Compression. There are three entries by Weta in the charts.
