THE BIG HOWEVER

PILOT WHALE RESEARCH
Their music wraps around you like a warm hug—gentle, reflective, and full of starry-eyed guitar noise, mandolin chimes, and swooping cello. Think Iron and Wine meets Godspeed You! Black Emperor, with a touch of Sonic Youth-style improv, Krautrock rhythms, and classic indie jangle. A sonic journey you won’t want to miss!
