Carl Wirkkala and the Whistle Punks
Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, singer-songwriter Carl Wirkkala brings to life tales of ghost towns, trains, and lonesome drifters through his music.
The core of Wirkkala’s music is based around the art of songwriting. His music tips a hat to the stylings of Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Bob Dylan. Several of his songs detail scenes from regions in southwest Washington. He has been writing and performing for 20 years and has 8 studio albums with another on the way featuring his new band, The Whistle Punks. The Whistle Punks are a talented group of musicians from the Vancouver-Portland area. Currently, the band consists of Wirkkala on guitar and vocals, Don Lawry on drums, Chad McAllister on guitars and Christine McAllister on bass and vocals.
In 2010, Carl recorded an album, “1974” in Nashville with members of Waylon Jennings’ band. The album was produced by Richie Albright, the legendary drummer for Waylon Jennings. Wirkkala has been performing regionally for over 15 years. His live-stream shows from his home venue, “The Cedar Tree” has reached fans all over the world.
