Kalle Wainio started writing and performing songs at the age of 17 under the pseudonym Kalle Mattson. In early 08 he was joined by comrades Rory Lewis and Patrick Larkin, expanding Kalle Mattson from a Dylan-influenced solo act into an experimental folk-rock trio. They self-produced their first EP in July 2008, entitled Telescope. Telescope sold out all 150 limited edition discs in six short months. After countless shows, Kalle Mattson returned to the studio in January 09, working with local legends Mark Gough (Best Engineer 2009 NOMFA) and multi-instrumentalist Frank Deresti on bass. The result of this collaboration is a new disc entitled Whisper Bee which expands and improves even further on Kalle Mattsons original folk, experimental, and pop blend. Whisper Bee was released in May 09. Now with a talented new lineup consisting of Kalle Wainio (Songs, Lead Vocals, Guitar), Rory Lewis (Lead Guitar, Synthesizers, Audible Strangeness), Théan Slabbert (Bass, Backing Vocals), and Jimmie Chiverelli (Percussion), they have created a unique, and energetic live sound. Inspired by the many artists with which they have shared the stage (The Wooden Sky, Great Bloomers, You Say Party We Say Die!, Coco Love Alcorn, The Pack A.D., Vancougar, The Deep Dark Woods, Spiral Beach, Elliott Brood and Cowboy Junkies to name a few), the future looks very bright for Kalle Mattson.
