More Information OR, THE WHALE
\A reference to Moby Dick and a testament to the roots of what making music is all about, San Francisco seven-piece Or, the Whale, is kicking up dust along the West Coast and spreading the gospel of honest music.... Seeing this band play live is touching, invigorating, and downright fun.\ - West Coast Performer Magazine
\Brandishing four Grand Ole Opry-worthy vocalists - frequently harmonizing to thrilling effect - as well as three other accomplished musicians, Or, the Whale throw one hell of a barn dance.\ - San Francisco Bay Guardian
LESLIE AND THE BADGERS
\Los Angeles-based Leslie & the Badgers make the exact style
of country music you wish Jenny Lewis had when she dabbled her feet in the country waters. No offense to her Rabbit Fur Coat, which is fine, but damn if Leslie & the Badgers don\'t put her to shame. The Badgers generously use the weepiest pedal steel, have sweetly mournful tear-in-your-beer lyrics, and singer Leslie Stevens holds it all together with incredible delivery and even more impressive pipes. Unfortunately No Depression just called it quits, because if there ever was a band that magazine was going to break, this is it.\ - The Portland Mercury  Email a friend
