The Chicago-born LA based artist cultivates a cutting-edge style underpinned by dancefloor-ready electronic synths, yet inclusive of alternative experimentation and three-dimensional pop expanse. Drawing inspiration from Justice as well as MGMT, Foster The People and Phoenix, he has continued to evolve, elevating his sound into a new stratosphere.
“You’re going to see a lot of evolution, I’ve never stuck to one formula or one type of song, or even one genre,” shares Whethan in a recent interview with Ones To Watch.
Hailed by Atwood Magazine as “a continuously-developing musical identity that shines by elevating the very best traits of his collaborators,” Whethan has quickly become one of electronic dance music’s most in-demand artists, spanning superstar collaborations, blockbuster remixes, and his own extraordinary solo output. The 20-year-old has unleashed a steady stream of viral smashes, making history as the youngest ever artist on Australia’s hugely influential Future Classics label while also over famous fans including EDM icon Skrillex.
2018 saw the long-awaited release of Whethan’s debut EP, Life of a Wallflower Vol. 1. The EP – which includes collaborations with HONNE, Bipolar Sunshine, Oh Wonder, and Broods, among others – earned widespread critical applause, with Billboard raving, “The whole collection of songs plays perfectly into Whethan’s pastel-colored sonic palette. It’s soft as petals falling in the breeze, but just as bright and intoxicating as cherry blossom perfume. His super-clean production makes even rough-edged noise sound cute. Really, it’s just freakin’ fun.”
In addition to his recorded work, Whethan has lit up crowds at countless clubs and top festivals, including Coachella, Lollapalooza, the Billboard Hot 100 Music Festival, Outside Lands, SXSW, and Electric Daisy Carnival, to name but a few. Recent highlights include a sold out co-headline show at Morrison, CO’s iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre and a headline performance at MTV’s year-ending Snowglobe Music Festival in South Lake Tahoe, CA as well as a massive New Years Eve performance at Decadence Festival in Colorado.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
