I would try modifying the theme
theme.ether.backgroundColors = [ "none", "none", "none", "none" ];
By default the theme supplies background colors for up to 4 bands,
hence, 4 "none"s. The theme's default implementation is here:

The resizing widget in Exhibit is implemented here

Maybe you can borrow some code from that.

Ah, OK, then note that the you can override some styles using CSS, e.g.,
.timeline-band-0 {
// rules just for band #0
}
.timeline-band-1 {
// rules just for band #1
}
