The Afghan Whigs

About

The Afghan Whigs are an American rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio. They were active from 1986 to 2001, reformed briefly in 2006 and again from 2011 to present. The early core members were Greg Dulli (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rick McCollum (lead guitar), and John Curley (bass). The bad rose up around the grunge movement, evolving from a garage band in the vein of the Replacements to incorporate more R&B and soul influences into their sound and image.
