In 1986, Weiland met bassist Robert DeLeo at a Black Flag concert in Long Beach, California. The two of them were discussing their love interests, when they realized one of them was the same girl they were both dating. They developed a bond over the incident, and ended up moving into her vacated apartment. Weiland’s childhood friends Corey Hicock and David Allin rounded out the group, both of whom would soon be replaced by Eric Kretz and DeLeo’s brother Dean. They took the name Stone Temple Pilots because of their fondness for the initials “STP.” In one of the band’s first opening performances as Mighty Joe Young, they opened for Electric Love Hogs, whose guitarist Dave Kushner would one day co-found Weiland’s later band Velvet Revolver. In 1992, they released their first album, Core, spawning four hits (“Sex Type Thing,” “Wicked Garden,” “Creep,” and “Plush.”)

Weiland’s vocal and musical style proved to be versatile, evolving constantly throughout his career.

The band’s third album, Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop, had Weiland singing in a much higher, raspier tone to complement the band’s more 60’s rock-influenced sound on that album. Later albums showcased Weiland’s influences ranging from bossa nova on Shangri-La Dee Da to blues rock and classic rock on the band’s 2010 self-titled album.

The couple was Janina Castenada between 1994 and 2000. He was married to Mary Forsberg from 2000 to 2007 and in 2013 He was married to Jamie Wachtel. There was a son called Noah and one daughter who was named Lucy.
