Or, the Whale
Hometown: San Francisco, CA
Or, the Whale is a lullaby of just the right amount of music and harmonies to make a grown man sway. Their anachronistic approach to a updated down-home vibe creates a powerful testament to what musicians can create after letting go of the norm. Or as per the Influences listed on their MySpace page - hooting, hollering, clapping, yelling, swearing, singing.
Solos and bridges are a mass tinkering of flavorful instrumentation. The harmonies are supportive and shiver-producers. Their full and complete sound will keep your ears tuned in for the hidden gems of future listening sessions. This band is pure innocence and the model of integrity.
Recommended Listening: "Call and Response", "Threads" and "Crack a Smile". The guitar tones in "Saint Bernard" are also quite tasty.
The band is currently on a national tour; and probably causing a lot of people to dance for the fun of dancing.
