WHALIEN IS A FOUR MAN JAM ROCK-FUSION BAND ORIGINATING FROM BELLINGHAM, WA

Whalien was formed in the Fall of 2016 and consists of four members. Zach "make this guitar my bitch" Martin, on guitar . Alex "the Genius Pianist" Draper, on keys and trombone. Shane "Dirty Gandalf" Crawford, on drums. Jimmy "the Rumble Wizard" Goulding, on bass  After playing together and perfecting their technique over the years they have grown and morphed into full on rock stars who are capable of melting faces, starting riots, and bringing down the house. They are beasts who are hungry for only the tastiest jams and nothing will get in their way.  They provide only the highest quality tunage with intense guitar solos, funky rhythms, and groovy melodies and they manage fit it all into one unique package that flows within and through the listener. Whalien has a very wide variety of experience and musical styles, having played at universities, pubs, bars, homes, private events, and festivals. Their sound will be sure to make you and your friends loose your minds with their music that is out of this world.

Sandi Fernandez is a singer songwriter currently based in Seattle, WA.  Her powerful raw voice and catchy melodies deliver toe tapping grooves to her audiences.  Influenced by folk music of the 60s, 90s alternative music, and modern indie music; her style is reminiscent of artists such as The Decemberists, The Lumineers, and Neutral Milk Hotel.

She draws upon the deep connection with her family to write music that reflects the love and challenges that come from these formative relationships.  Her music explores the pain of loss, the beauty of love, and the importance of home.  She wraps it all up into a melody driven belting style of Americana music.

His origin remains a mystery, all we know is that our fearless leader currently resides in the Seattle area. A man, or perhaps just a glorious, and strange apparition. A being that manages to defy space, and time. A mystical minstrel. The troubadour we all adore.

Some minds are incapable of digesting his splendor. For oh so many of us are lost inside ourselves. Fixated on past traumas, so much so that we end up re-enacting them into infinity. These convoluted mentalities disrupt their ability to process the eternal benovolence that our fearless leader effortlessly dispenses. This does not discourage him, for he will not relent. He will re-awaken our slumbering spirit, and provide guidance in the overwhelming menagerie of the modern age.  And restore the eternal truths we managed to lose sight of somewhere along the way.

Our foreign, and yet familiar shepherd will escort us all, hand in hand, into the New Dawn as one.  He's also a good singer, and his songs are wicked catchy.
