Bio
Whistler is an Indie Rock band from Charlotte, NC. The project’s core members, Vocalist/Guitarist Will Royson and Guitarist Paul Brazell, have been playing music together under different monikers for over a decade. They both began writing songs for Whistler during the lockdowns caused by the COVID 19 Pandemic. The songs born out of those writing sessions became their EP Everywhere But Here. Whistler’s songs deal with themes from childhood innocence, confronting differences with loved ones, and even the passing of close friends. These songs are wrapped in washed out guitars, engaging rhythms, and soft vocals. The band draws its influences from The War on Drugs, Pedro The Lion, Tom Angst, and others.
New Album “Everywhere But Here”
Whistler’s debut EP Everywhere But Here features singles Cadillac and Questions. The record is filled with dynamic, mid-tempo songs that appeal to a broad audience. The combination of its relatable themes, dissonant reverberated guitars, and memorable melodies align the record with the modern indie rock sound. The record was recorded at Archer Avenue Studio in Columbia, SC and Mastered at Studio B in Charlotte, NC
