Born in '68 and raised on rock and roll, I am the host of the Greaser's Lunchbox on KDHX St. Louis, FM 88.1 (kdhx.org on the web). The show airs 10am-noon central time on Thursdays. 10 am is not a usual lunchtime but the show has only been in this timeslot since 2004. From 1999-2004 it was on Mondays at noon, hence the name. The Greaser's Lunchbox is any music I find worthy of airtime with the main focus being rockabilly and psychobilly. If you have a band and wish to be aired, send TWO copies of cd to:
Al Swacker and the Greaser's Lunchbox

and be sure to specify that one copy is for me personally.
I play in two bands. I am the guitarist for the punk, country, blues band known as The Devil Baby Freakshow. We have two lovely female singers (one that tap dances), bass, guitar (me), drums and trumpet. We play everything from Loretta Lynn to the Misfits with many originals. We play the St. Louis are frequently and we always kick ass.
I am the Bassist/co-singer for the punk rock power trio known as the Lindbergh Babies. Formed out of the ashes of my previous band the UnMutuals, we are vulgar and pissed off and it shines in our lyrics.
