Whispertown2000 is an indie band from Los Angeles, California. They have toured with several prominent indie artists in the past few years, including Bright Eyes, Maria Taylor, Johnathan Rice, Margot & the Nuclear So and So's, Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins and The Elected (featuring Blake Sennett of Rilo Kiley.)
A native of Oregon who grew up in Los Angeles, Nagler met and befriended fellow former child actor, Blake Sennett, in the mid-1990s. Soon after he and Jenny Lewis formed the band Rilo Kiley in 1998, Nagler also began writing songs and singing. In 2004, Nagler performed her songs before a live audience (with help from friend Tod Adrian Wisenbaker) as the opening act for The Elected (Blake Sennett's side project from Rilo Kiley). At that time, she referred to herself as Vagtown2000. Nagler credits Sennett and Lewis for giving her the support to record and perform her own songs. In 2005, Nagler and Wisenbaker changed the name of their group to Whispertown2000 and asked Corbala and Maloney to join. During the fall 2006 tour, Casey Wisenbaker (Tod's brother) also joined the band. Maloney parted ways with the band in 2007.
Their debut album, Whispertown2000 - Livin' in a Dream was finished in 2006 and is available online and at their shows. Their album was produced by Blake Sennett and Jimmy Tamborello (of Dntel and The Postal Service). Additional performers include Jenny Lewis, Blake Sennett, and Johnathan Rice. Their second album will be released sometime in 2008.
In the Summer of 2006, they coordinated a tour across west coast and south central United States (including California, Arizona, and Texas) completely through their Myspace page.
