Lipscombe and Swan

About Me


Mike (Lipscombe) and Steev (Swan) live in the Maitai Valley in Nelson NZ.
We live surrounded by trees and a river, and our music tend s to reflect this.
( check out our terribly house and garden pics )
Mike writes the songs, Steev and he arrange them.
Lipscombe and Swan
perform them.

There are quite alot of love songs po sted on here, but we do tend towards the s ocial or political issues for material as well.
Maybe that is an insight to how we are feeling at the moment.

My Interests

Member Since: 05/05/2007
Band Members: Mike Lipscombe
Steev Swan..
Influences: Well we started off playing alot of Simon & Garfunkel type stuff, Everly bro's ,Seals and Crofts, Cat Stevens, anything that had good harmonies. and some that we just decided should have.
So we played around Nelson and a few other parts of the country (New Zealand) for about 8 years. Then decided to take a break.
Sounds Like: Lipscombe
and
Swan

have come back to record and perform mainly original material.
We have evolved from the different styles of music we used to perform, the common theme being harmony. We both love to sing harmony and therefore sometimes is a struggle to find someone to do the melody, but we work it out.
As we have been progressing through the recording process we are finding we are using stronger rythmns and (because of our love of singing harmony) layered backing vocals, giving our sound quite a different Aura.

We have been working hard to get this right and very soon will have something else uploaded for you to listen to.
Actually you may have noticed we have, but keep coming back, there will be more!
