Swami & the Salamis

About Me

Excerpt from "Keep on Runnin'", performed for the Track Shack 5K Corporate IOA run on April 24, 2008.

We're no jugband!
Our live set spans about 4 decades, ranging in style from rockabilly and surf to street punk and early new wave.
Autogroupography:We formed in August 2006 as a group of friends who wanted to rock out some non-contemporary music and inject some humor into a live act. In the past year, we've accumulated over 65 songs, and the list keeps growing. And we add new songs for every show we play to keep it interesting...
*For booking information, send us an email! In addition to playing at your bar, pub, bowling alley and/or 5K jogging event, we will consider playing at private parties!
