Overview

The Walrus is one of the Northwest's favorite classic rock bands! Their rich vocal harmonies and sizzling musical arrangements on tunes from the Beatles to the B52s energize audiences of all ages. They even play the next-to-impossible 'Bohemian Rhapsody'!

The band consists of 5 seasoned professionals who care about making every event smooth and enjoyable for all. All five members sing, so the classic rock and swing tunes they perform are vocally rich. This allows the band to play many songs no other cover band would touch, such as songs by CSNY, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Stevie Wonder.

In 2015, The Walrus was selected to play at the NFC Championship game at Century Link Field.

What to Expect

One of the Northwest's favorite bands, The Walrus has been energizing clubs, parties, weddings, and outdoor events since 1995.

The band's vocally rich and intricate arrangements include songs by the Beatles, Queen, the Jackson 5, the B-52s, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, Elvis Costello, Roy Orbison, Jefferson Airplane, Heart, the Police, CSNY, Talking Heads, Aretha Franklin, and many others.

The Walrus is made up of five seasoned professionals who care about making every event and performance fun, smooth and enjoyable for all. All band members sing, enabling the band to perform songs most cover bands would never think of even trying, such as Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody."

About

Jamie Shea, lead vocalist, and guitarist/vocalist Chuck Dingée are hard-core Beatles fans who have been playing Fab Four tunes for more than 30 years in separate bands. Shea wrote a novella about the Beatles when she was 13 and just learning to play her first guitar. Dingée saw the Beatles in Comiskey Park, Chicago, in 1966 and played only Beatles songs with his first guitar.

They have teamed up with other self-described Beatlemaniacs: Michael "Ringo" O'Neal; Vic Smith on a blazing electric guitar and Dave Lyon on bass.

The group delights audiences of toddlers to seniors with the classic Beatles sound that bridges generations. The Walrus performs a wide variety of classic pop and rock tunes -- including songs by Stevie Wonder, Traveling Wilburys, Eurythmics, Steely Dan and many others.

In 2015, The Walrus was selected to play at the Seattle Seahawks NFC Championship Game at CenturyLink Field.

In the past 13 years, The Walrus has headlined numerous festivals in Northwest Washington, including the Ski to Sea Fairhaven Festival, Skagit Valley Tulip Festival Street Fair, AT&T Maritime Festival, and many others. The Walrus has also played at numerous clubs, parties and weddings.
