A Christian parody band from Castle Rock, Littleton and Larkspur (CO) made up of former and current rock 'n roll band members, playing for fun. We brought back some of the classic rock 'n roll covers we all grew up with plus a few that we decided to twist the lyrics just a little. It's still a lot of fun.

Jonah & The Whales was originally formed in 1997 in Waco (TX), but dissolved after Jonah was relocated to the Denver metro area.

Jonah lay dormant until 2003 when the idea to revive Jonah & The Whales popped up.

And why not? We had the logo and a few leftover T-shirts.

Influences:

God, Jesus Christ, Holy Spirit, Paul, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, Andrew, Thomas, Esther, Ruth, Moses, Daniel, Jonah, Samson, Delilah, Joseph, Joshua, Stephen, Timothy, Barnabas, et al.

Oh, you mean recording artists...

Okay, there's The Doobie Brothers, Del Shannon, Gloria Estefan, Jerry Lee Lewis, Frankie Avalon, Norman Greenbaum, Neil Diamond, Little Peggy March, The Crystals, Rare Earth, The Beach Boys, The Monkees, Grand Funk Railroad, The Byrds, Loverboy, Journey, Boston, Tom Petty, etc.

Equipment List:
