The intrepid White Whale crew - John Anderson (Boys Life), Dustin Kinsey (The New Amsterdams), Matt Suggs (Butterglory), Zach Holland and Rob Pope (The Get Up Kids) - has been running the seas ragged in support of their oceanic Merge Records debut "WWI." The band references their sound as "Roxy Sabbath" (Roxy Music + Black Sabbath), which affords only a hint of the aural storm that propels White Whale to strange sonic worlds and new musical adventures. The hometown heroes will be joined by Kansas City dark-wave chaplains Roman Numerals and the prodigal The Only Children (whose frontman Josh Berwanger recently returned to Lawrence after a Canadian holiday).
