The Whigs

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Of the hundreds of bands searching for a licensing deal at this year’s South by Southwest music festival, The Whigs were perhaps the best suited for inclusion on the Madden ’09 videogame soundtrack or a 30-second appearance on Gossip Girl. The Athens, Ga., power trio join us to play songs from Mission Control, their first album for groove-rocker Dave Mattthews’ ATO label.

The Whigs open for the Drive By Truckers on Mar. 26 at Terminal 5 at 8pm.
