“squalling guitars and juggernaut grooves, a wall of noise sonic salvo, and plenty of anthemic artistry”
— Dancing About Architecture
Powder keg guitars echo through the verses as singer, songwriter, and guitarist, Jordin Swanson ponders a relationship in a tailspin. “The stars look close together when you stare at them at night. In reality, though they are extremely far from each other, millions, and millions of light years. There is a sense of loneliness there, a sense of distance and coldness. Like most people, I’ve been in relationships that have fallen apart. It’s a strange situation to sit next to somebody….to feel their breath on your shoulder, to feel their skin on your skin, but know that they are hopelessly far from you, to know you won’t reach them, to know there’s a distance you can’t get past,” Swanson shared.
“catchy melodies and distorted guitars, powerful, raw, gritty, and unapologetic. He sings with emotion and conviction, and you can feel his passion and his authenticity,” — Folk N Rock
Their upcoming debut album delivers an edgy hybrid of melody, rhythm, rock, and grunge-pop that is both reminiscent and fresh. Pre-order Here and Not Here and receive instant downloads of four album tracks upon their release here
