The Whales

The Whales have released two albums (Whales Rock and FishbellyWhite), a single (Buddy Lover b/w Talk About the Weather), and have appeared on Volumes 1 & 2 of the Towers of New London compilation.

The Whales have performed at a variety of venues from Boston to Washington, DC. They have opened for such artists as Rick Danko, Young Fresh Fellows, Fleshtones, Yorma Kaukonen, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, The Reducers and The Outlaws.
