The Sweeps

Suddenly Detouring So Unexpected

About Me

Founded in 2006 German-based THE SWEEPS have already released 2 albums, "Eclectic Electric" (2006) and it’s follow up "The Great Lie About Eternity" at the end of 2007. Obviously all band members share a deep fascination for vintage synthesizers, so you should expect bubbling Moogs and a lot of string synthesizers. At the moment the band is demoing new material expected for a concert premiere in autumn 2008. So for now take a look at some video material from our latest gigs and: Keep on sweeping!
