Swervedriver

Where: 9:30 Club

Date: 2008-06-08 19:30:00

Type:

Swervedriver is an English alternative rock band from United Kingdom. From Glasgow, Scotland, Terra Diablo plays rock/alternative/indie music and features Ian Fairclough (vocals/guitar), Dave Mcaulay (guitar/vocals), Stu Mileham (bass/samples) and Dave Cadler (drums/vocals). New York-based, shaggy haired rock tykes Longwave formed for a simple reason -- because it felt right. And with that sort of natural birth and organic attitude comes a sound that is relaxed, and yet emotional, classically simple and yet imbued with dark-edged introspection. Put simply, this is a band that makes music because they love music, and that's worth much more than any notion of stardom or the easy life.
