Rad rock shot from last weekend in Redding at @599fest Day One. It was great to see so many amazing people and amazing bands in one place, and even better seeing them again the next day. Crossing our fingers for next year🤞🏻

You got 599 reasons to go to @599fest and hopefully we’re one. April 18th in Redding, April 19th in Chico, forever in the annals of rock and roll history.
Amazing experience this weekend recording seven new @westbyswan songs with Jack Shirley at @_the_atomic_garden_ in Oakland. Highly recommended if you’re ever in need of an extremely robust recording, not to mention several very strong cups of coffee.
Since 2003 Chico’s West by Swan has been recklessly experimenting with the full range of rock ‘n’ roll dynamics, moving between hushed ambience and molten riffs, touching every space in between over the course of the band’s five-album catalog. With guitarist brothers Dan and Dave Greenfield and bass player Greg Hopkins splitting vocal duties alongside drummer Daniel Taylor, West by Swan draws from a broad palette of influences spanning the angular noise rock bands of the ‘80s and ‘90s, the explosive post metal bands of the 2000s, and beyond.
