Filligar is an alternative rock band of Johnny, Teddy and Pete Mathias and childhood friend Casey Gibson. Filligar’s latest album release, Keepsakes of the Interior (via Decade Records), was recorded in Los Angeles, California in the band's studio as well as at Chicago’s legendary Electrical Audio. The critically acclaimed album marks the band’s eighth studio project to date and features their vibrant singles “Motor Shine” and “White Light Rose.” Their 2013 release Hexagon was named “Best New Music” by American Songwriter magazine, and their 2010 release The Nerve was nominated “Best Rock Album” at the Independent Music Awards.

In 2013 the United States Department of State appointed Filligar cultural ambassadors representing the "American people and their cultural values" and "the best of the U.S. arts community."[3] They have played with artists such as The Black Keys, My Morning Jacket, Alabama Shakes, B.o.B, and were hand-picked by Counting Crows to join their Outlaw Roadshow tour in 2012.

Filligar has a prolific catalog of original music, recognized as “of prestige value” by the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP). The band has been called “a fresh take on indie rock” by Paste Magazine, one of music’s “Next Big Things” by SPIN and “a breath of fresh air” by Consequence of Sound.
