Swyers is the name under which Josh Swyers has just released a new album of Americana and folk songs. Swyers is also known around the community as a kick ass skater. The album, called Treefort, contains twelve tracks of varied folk and rock experimentations. Check out “Blood Stream” for a grainy, clapping, staccato guitar and spacious excursion.
Woods from New York just played at Strange Matter on 11/1 and r0wjimmy took a video of song “Is it Honest?”
Singer/songwriter Sean Cunningham released an album in April under the name Ladies & Gentlemen. He is a one-man-band, as he played all instruments, sang, engineered, and produced the album all himself. The folk tunes have a softness and darkness about them. Check out “Halloween” if you still miss October pranks.
