The New Voices of WhitefishRadio.com

Today's blog is dedicated to learning a bit more about some of the artists featured on The Big Fish!

Tim Torgerson was born and raised in Whitefish, and lived in Las Vegas for a while before moving back home in 2005. When describing his performance style, he says "I kind of have a thing for handmade acoustics and I love to play electric guitars too." His repertoire consists of original songs and instrumentals and also twisted arrangements of classic and current cover songs. Tim enjoys using alternate tunings, standard and custom-designed capos, and electronic gear to get his one of a kind sound. Check out his website here.

The Mission Mountain Woodband has been a Montana favorite since its inception. The Band first came to national prominence in the 70s, touring nonstop and playing over 250 dates a year. Although the band isn't together anymore, they are still on best seller lists of record stores around the state. They seem to attract more fans during each reunion show. During the Reunion Tour in the Summer of 1992 they played for over twenty thousand people in Polson, Missoula and Helena. They also had a reunion concert in Libby in 2003. Check out their website here.

Kyle Archer began recording his first CD at the age of 17 at the Hit Factory in New York City. After graduating high school, Kyle enrolled at Chapman University in California, where he appears in class films, radio shows, school benefits and theater productions. Kyle is continuing performances around the Los Angeles Area, and is currently writing material for his next CD. See his website here.
