Sounds Like:North Swell is finding a unique balance between hard hitting Reggae, and Indie-Rock choruses and melodic vocal melodies.Leading the charge is front-man Lawrence Martinez (former lead singer of rock band SALMON). Armed with his hard hitting rapid fire lyrical onslaught of vocal trills, and high energy presence on stage makes every performace one worth seeing.On lead guitar and vocals is Jesse West (former lead singer of rock band INTRANSIT). Jesse brings in a wealth of live performance and songwriting skills to the table, while balancing out the ever changing rhythmic diversity of the bands style. He exchanges explosive lyrical melodies with Lawrence adding a flavor and sound that is very unique and all its own.Playing bass guitar is Santa Cruz local Michael Felix who also brings alot of energy and experience to the table! His exciting personality gives North Swell a solid balance and defining edge taking it to that next level.On drums is local rocker Rolly Delfin. Rolly is not only experienced at the drums, but tempers the sound and unfies the reggae and rock elements that makes North Swell so fun to watch.Keep North Swell on your radar, and expect to be hearing alot more about them in the next few months!
