The Whispertown 2000 is such a fitting name for a whole bunch of reasons. Morgan Nagler, (lead vocals, guitar) has been whispering for years before making this record. For the longest time, her songs were only heard in the most casual settings; passing the guitar in a circle in someone's living room, barely singing above the crackle of firewood or clinking bottles.

That all changed when she met guitarist Tod Adrian Wisenbaker. Tod and his brother, Casey, grew up playing in punk, folk, and hardcore bands in California. Morgan and Tod soon began playing shows in and around Los Angeles. Eventually they added singer Vanesa Corbala, who was born in Tijuana and grew up singing traditional Mexican music, and Casey to the lineup. The addition of Casey and Vanesa allowed the band to experiment with the instrumentation. Tod, Vanesa, and Casey trade off on drums, bass, guitar, harp, and vocals. The Whispertown 2000’s vibrant live shows have scored them opening slots with Jenny Lewis, Rilo Kiley, Maria Taylor, She & Him, and Bright Eyes.
