BIO
American Whale plays original music in and around Dayton, Ohio. Their expansive vision of poetic, heartland folk-rock earned them a Finalist spot in the 2025 Dayton Battle of the Bands the Brightside Music Venue (as the Simon Fink Band), where they were hailed by the judging panel for their “great songs” and for “play(ing) the room perfectly.”
“Fink’s playing (is) crisp and pure, and so is his voice, a gentle
tenor with a built-in, intriguing whisper.”
— Mike Warren, KCUR 89.3 FM“Sweet on the ears.”
— Madison Ward (Madison Ward and the Mama Bear)
“American music in its purest, sweetest, and most engaging
form.”
— Vinny, WHUS 91.7 FM
