About Me

The Swains are:
Danny Baker, Kris Geren, Will Henry, Bob Knetzger and Barry 'bearbeatz' Semple.
From heartbreak and honky-tonk to boogie and ballads, The Swains deliver authentic songs and songwriting inspired by traditional American music.
After paying dues in local country and rockabilly bands all across the nation, they came together in Seattle, in 2004. Coming from Kansas, Arizona, Alabama and Washington, the boys have played music from the Country Music Hall of Fame to the clubs and honky-tonks of the northwest. Led by Baker's vocals and songwriting, The Swains bring genuine emotion and experience to their style of country.
