Known for their explosive live shows, the group mixes high-octane improvisation with gritty rock ‘n’ roll energy, creating a sound that’s as unpredictable as it is unforgettable.Formed in 2017, Whale Feral quickly built a reputation with dynamic performances across the state, sharing stages with acts like The Marcus King Band and The Heavy Pets. Their early momentum led to the release of a live album and a feature in Relix Magazine, including a live session at the magazine’s Brooklyn headquarters.Since then, the band has kept a relentless touring schedule, evolving their sound while maintaining the raw spontaneity that defines them. Following their 2021 live release All’s Whale That Ends Whale, they returned to the studio to craft their first full-length LP, Words We Can’t Read—a bold step forward that captures both their studio finesse and signature live fire.Whether on stage or in the studio, Whale Feral continues to push boundaries, drawing from rock, funk, psych, and soul to create something entirely their own.Links:https://www.instagram.com/whaleferal/https://www.facebook.com/whaleferalhttps://www.youtube.com/@Whaleferalhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/387Pp3WpqpNPuP1NxFAhUe?si=qgGKRQmIRYWRA2_mhsDfVwhttp://linktr.ee/whaleferalmusicCharity of Choice:https://www.recycledtunesflorida.com/Stay tuned for next week's Episode #126, featuring Steiner's interview with musician, engineer, and FOH and Main Monitor Man for the legendary Pappy & Harriet's in Pioneertown, CA - it's Dave Keizer!!!________Click Here For 10% Off Your Total Purchase From Black Box Prompter!https://blackboxprompter.com/?coupon=secondhandtalent________Our featured charity for Season 6 is The Visions Foundation.

  • "Seek The Signal & Negate The Noise" wsg Matt Kellen | Secondhand Talent #122
    Sep 2 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome to Season 6, Episode 22, of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"!!!

    In this episode of the Secondhand Talent podcast, the host engages in a deep conversation with musician Matt Kellen about his journey in music, the influence of family, the importance of education, and the challenges of mental health in the music industry. They discuss the significance of community support, the unsung heroes behind the scenes, and the power of kindness.

    The conversation also touches on the stigma surrounding substance abuse and the need for accessible mental health resources. Ultimately, the episode emphasizes the importance of creativity, connection, and resilience in the face of adversity.

    A Note From Matt To You:

    "Thank you for checking out this interview. If you feel so inclined, please consider donating to wither of these charities that helped out our family and so, so many more:

    The Ronald McDonald House - Hines, Illinois:

    Loyola University Medical Center - Ronald McDonald House Chicagoland & Northwest Indiana: ronaldmcdonaldhousechicago.org

    These great folks allowed my family to have a place of residence nearby, whenever Jake was in the hospital on a long term scale. We stayed there many times. They have amazing locations in Brookfield (our most frequented space), as well as in Minneapolis, near the University of Minnesota medical campus. We didn’t have to pay a dime to stay there, and it saved us, truly.

    Doctors Without Borders: give.doctorswithoutborders.org

    Adding even more to the difficult energy of doing medical work on complete strangers, the doctors in this group take their work international, extending care to those who may never be able to access it otherwise. Their work is critical to human well being and advancement, at home and abroad.

    All the best,
    Matt"
