This is either our masterpiece or Exhibit A.They told us not to release this song. They said it would get us cancelled. That was all the encouragement we needed. So here it is… our career suicide note, set to music.Canadian Whiskey is, on paper, a “conventional country drinking song.” Which is true, if you ignore the sarcasm, the side-eye, and the fact that it was co-written with Allan Caswell — a self-confessed leftie, boomer, hippie, and professional troublemaker. Totally coincidental. Probably.Before anyone gets dramatic — it’s not anti-American. It’s just aggressively pro everyone else. Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, France, Australia. Hell, if Greenland makes tequila,they’re in too.
The “Wattmore thing” keeps catching fire:
· Circus Life (the debut chaos)
· Romantic Side (#3 on Australian Country Radio)
· I Don’t Miss That Woman (#7 on Australian Country Radio)
All with critics muttering things like:
· “It’s country but not quite. It’s punk but not exactly … it’s Wattmore and that’s the point” – Foxfire
· “Classic country on the surface until the punk undertones punch through” – Miles Coleman
· “A perfect blend of bourbon-soaked Americana vibes and old-school country with a modern edge” – The Other Side Reviews
Translation: nobody knows what box to put them in, so they just gave them good reviews instead.On Canadian Whiskey , the Wattmore machine is in full swing:
· Written by Aiden, Kai & Allan Caswell
· Dragged into existence by Lindsay Waddington at LWM House Studios — the only man alive who can take Wattmore’s racket, run it through a blender, and somehow hand back a radio single instead of a police report
· Backed by some of Australia’s finest country players (the kind who make it sound easy), plus the boys themselves on guitars that weren’t just played — they were assaulted, interrogated, and dumped in a shallow grave somewhere in the mix
The result? Brash. Irreverent. Fresh. Smartarse. Basically Wattmore in a glass — neat, no chaser. So pour a glass, lower your standards, and hit play. Out September 26th, 2025 b ecause every great mistake deserves a soundtrack.Who Are Wattmore?Wattmore are two brothers who communicate almost entirely through guitar solos, sarcasm, and eye rolls sharp enough to cut glass. They’re awkward like suddenly forgetting how pockets work to somehow stumbling into brilliance while looking like they took a wrong turn at common sense.Their songs are loaded with grit, mischief, and emotional sucker punches disguised as choruses. Expect dry humour, zero small talk, and the kind of honesty that makes PR departments break out in hives
