Andrew Swift (CMAA Golden Male Artist of the Year) is returning to arcobar this April for an Exclusive Melbourne Show! Supported by Dakota East. A loveable bard of the road, a soulful troubadour, a heavily tattooed mountain of a man with a penchant for touring in tiny caravans – Andrew Swift is many things.
Embraced whole-heartedly by Australia’s country music scene, Andrew Swift's musical background speaks to an unexpectedly diverse journey. A shuffle played, genre-defying, jukebox of wild assortment - Swift’s creative resume covers not only country sub-genre staples such as Americana and bluegrass; but also power-pop, punk-rock and indie. A far cry from the fully formed, self-assured sweetheart of Tamworth we know and love today. And yet, once aware of this smorgasbord of creative influence, it’s hard for the listener to un-hear the coming together of unbridled grit and pop sensibilities punching through the soaring melodies and proficient songcraft.
Swift’s curious nature has arguably influenced his output. 2018’s #1 ARIA Australian Country debut Call Out For The Cavalry launched Swift as an undeniably accomplished storyteller. Touring the album that spoke of Runaway Trains and Reckless Desires, Swift hit the road ferociously with some of the biggest names in Australian country. Sharing stages with The Wolfe Brothers, Catherine Britt and Shannon Noll to name just a few, Swift continued to hone his craft picking up new influences along his travels.
With 2018's Call Out For The Cavalry scoring Swift two CMAA Golden Guitars, his latest album The Art Of Letting Go has gained Swift a further two nominations, for Male Artist of the Year and Alt-Country Album of the year, at the 50th CMAA Golden Guitar Awards in 2022 and has already racked up four top 10 singles, 2 CMT #1s as well as debuting #1 on the ARIA Australian Country chart and #25 overall genres and was the 5th highest-selling Australian Country album of 2021.
