Whiskey Fever https://www.reverbnation.com/whiskeyfever
Voted best band in Skagit Valley by Cascadia Weekly in 2017, and recent winners of the Tour Possible Seattle Music Competition!
About 15 years ago in a sleepy, backwater town tucked into the foothills of the Pacific Northwest, 11 year-old Jack Mattingly had an epiphany he would be a musician. Inspired by the members of a rock band brought in as part of career day at Jacks school, he began his journey.
Today, Whiskey Fever are the realization of that goal. A four piece rock-n-roll band that includes not only the former fourth grader who found is calling in music, but in a unique twist of fate, one of the original members of the band that inspired him to follow his dream.
Jacks songwriting and story-telling is the perfect blend of heart, smarts, and humor. His musicianship, whether on guitar, banjo, ukulele or harmonica is confident and clean. Combined with the undertones of the rock, bluegrass, and folk that inspired him along the way, the music is compelling, honest, and most of all, engaging.
Whiskey Fever is comprised of Jack Mattingly on guitar and lead vocals, Andy Brown on drums, Dylan Dalgarn on bass, and Dennis Dorgan on electric guitar. The band is consistently named the "best band" in the area, and they continue to develop a following all around the Pacific Northwest and beyond. The band enjoys being on the road and expanding their territory. Whiskey Fever live performances are full-energy, intimate-yet-powerful, good time events. The band has a somewhat unique ability to engage with people in the back row as well as the front. Whiskey Fever eagerly and regularly plays around the northwest part of the country, traveling as far as Anaheim, CA to play the NAMM Show in 2014.
In the Spring of 2015 they released the follow-up to their 2013 Pops Garage EP- this time a full-length album titled: "Gonna Wake Up This Whole Town". The album received very positive reviews, and was on the Grammy Awards ballot for both "Best New Artist" and "Best Rock Album". They anticipate releasing a new album in 2017.
