SwampDaWamp (pronounced swamp duh wamp), a unique name for an exciting band with an incomparable sound. The brain-child of singer-songwriter-guitarist Gig Michaels, Charlotte, NC's SwampDaWamp is the powerful and creative collaboration of six talented and seasoned musicians: Gig Michaels (lead vocals & acoustic guitar); David Lee (drums); Michael Hough (guitar & vocals); Keith Inman (guitar); Mike Huffman (keyboards, B3 & vocals); and Cody Bennett (bass). Upon hearing their name, most people are more...immediately curious. It was born accidentally, while frontman Michaels was scatting at the end of a song. The name instantly captured the band's high-spirited rock energy and rootsy vibe, and it stuck.
2007 marked the debut of SwampDaWamp with the release of their self-titled CD (Big Penny Entertainment-Nashville, TN), an infectious blend of rock and blues with a southern flavor, all in support of Michaels' powerful, gravelly voice. It's no wonder music lovers from rock to blues to country fans...from college age to baby-boomers, love this feel-good, high-octane music. At once unique and familiar, a much sought-after but rarely achieved combination; it has struck a chord with fans all over. Since its release, “SwampDaWamp” has garnered much critical acclaim. The CD was selected as one of the TOP 23 ALBUMS OF 2007 by Eartaste.com , putting them in the company of such artists as John Fogerty, Rickie Lee Jones, and Ray Davies. It also has received rave reviews from the UK's top music publication, “Blues Matters.” In addition, they continue to receive radio airplay throughout the country on college, mainstream, internet and are a favorite at XM Satellite Radio.
While almost instantaneously becoming known for their free-spirited, sing-and-dance-along live shows, SwampDaWamp has amassed a huge and rapidly growing fan base. Their music touches people of all ages and backgrounds, as evidenced by the over 15,000 My Space friends they have spanning the globe from the U. less |
