Or, The Whale was a San Francisco based Americana band, formed in 2006. The group released two albums, Light Poles and Pines in 2007 and Or, The Whale in 2009. The name of the band is derived from the alternative title of Herman Melville's book Moby-Dick (Moby-Dick; or, The Whale). The group was formed through the website Craigslist, where bandmembers Alex Robins and Matt Sartain (guitar and vocals) posted an advertisement titled "Wanna Form a Sweet Country Rock Band?". They recruited fellow vocalist Lindsay Garfield from a listing she had written looking for a guitar player, and from there recruited bandmates Julie Ann Thomasson on keyboards and vocals, Justin Fantl on bass, Jesse Hunt on drums, and Tim Marcus on pedal steel guitar.
