Or, the Whale is a collective of members who prove power in numbers. With a strong DIY ethic, and a Carter Family chemistry, they've continued to warm hearts and move feet throughout the U.S. They deliver honesty and energy every time, weaving driving indie-rock epics, sweet folk lullabies, boot-stompin' country rockers, and wailing blues porch anthems into a seamless and powerful live show. The four vocalists bellow and croon tight, down-home harmonies, as the 7-piece ensemble grounds the voices in gritty rock goodness. Currently working on their sophomore album, they've successfully booked national tours, secured a spot on national TVs Good Morning America, and done a nation-wide radio promotion where their album debuted in the top 40 of the AMA Americana charts, and peaked at 26. Or, the Whale is just getting warmed up.
