Swamp Poney is a Tampa-based punk-blues band that reveres early Piedmont and Hill Country blues, blending rootsy fingerstyle guitar with the raw energy of punk rock. The rhythm section of Richy Scally and Shirell Essix moves seamlessly between primal stomps and train beat shuffles, while Bear Cannon's guitar work delivers a powerful mix of fuzz-laden grit and melodic finesse. Their debut EP, released in May 2024, captures this dynamic sound across four tracks of powerful punk-blues that honors tradition while pushing it into electrifying new territory, creating a fresh, modern take on classic blues.
