Band Bios...
Swerve Johnson - Rooted in the spirited pub rock scene of 1970s London, Swerve Johnson channels the energy of legends like Elvis Costello, Ian Dury, and Nick Lowe, blending punchy rhythms with sharp, introspective lyrics. Their music is a celebration of authenticity, with a sound that invites you to lose yourself in stories that feel like your own.
