The Whigs

Given that their latest release is a live album, it goes without saying that the Whigs feel at home on the stage playing their unabashed rock’n’roll. Fat basslines, hard-hitting drum dubs, and compellingly juxtaposed vocals and guitars make for simple, catchy tunes with no bells and whistles getting in the way of vintage, dance-worthy riffs.
