Remove ads
Whaling City Sound is an independent jazz record label established by Neal Weiss in 1999.
History
Weiss is president of Fiber Optic Center in New Bedford, Massachusetts. A lifelong fan of jazz, he started Whaling City Sound as a jazz label, though he has dabbled in other genres such as blues and classical.[1] The first acts to sign were both from New Bedford, pianist John Harrison and vocalist Marcelle Gauvin, who recorded the first album in the catalog. Gerry Gibbs, the son of jazz vibraphonist Terry Gibbs, fulfilled a dream when he formed the Thrasher Dream Trio with bassist Ron Carter and pianist Kenny Barron and released an album in 2013. Other musicians who have recorded for Whaling City Sound include guitarist Joe Beck, saxophonist Dave Liebman, and saxophonist Greg Abate.[2][3]
