Athens, Georgia rock trio the Whigs recorded their first album, 2005's Give 'Em All a Big Fat Lip, on eBay-bought equipment in a borrowed frat house with no air-conditioning in 110-degree heat - and still managed to make Rolling Stone's Ten Artists to Watch as an unsigned band. But we're pleased to tell you that the hard-touring Whigs are in a fancy Los Angeles studio right now, recording their label debut with producer Rob Schnapf, best known for his work with Elliott Smith.
