All Night Long - Warmfest 2013

A recording of our performance at WARMfest...

Skinny Woman - Warmfest 2013

You Know Me - Warmfest 2013

Watch Out

Listen up fellas! I have a story to tell
About one badass woman that you know well
She stands eye to eye with the wildest kind
She'll bring you to your knees... make you lose your mind

Watch Out

She was seeing this fella... A regular thing
I mean love man! Right down to the diamond ring
Soon she'd find out, her prince was no king
"Please baby please!! It didn't mean a thing!"

Watch Out

Then one day, She awoke to his lies!
She caught him red-handed! Between those thighs
A sea of betrayal washed over her face
She showed him no mercy... No kindness or grace

Watch Out

His screams rang out! The fear in his eyes! 
As she reached down and tore him from between those thighs
His bones cracked and snapped, like her vengeful mind
As she laid down her curse... and condemned his kind

Watch Out


Watch Out

Why Won't You Tell Me

Why won’t you tell me,
Baby, where did you stay last night?
Why won’t you tell me,
Honey, what did you do last night?
I stayed up so long
Worryin’ what you’re doing just ain’t right

Stop your lying
Honey, you ain’t gonna leave me crying
Stop your lying
No baby, you won’t never leave me crying
Behave yourself
And stop your begging for one more time

Say goodbye
‘Cause honey, you ain’t gonna waste no more of my time
Say goodbye
No no no you ain’t gonna waste my time
Babe, I’m gonna leave you
Ain’t gonna turn around this time

I’m gonna keep on walkin’
Just gonna keep on walkin’
Walkin’ away
Ain’t gonna turn around
Ain’t gonna look you in the eye 
Ain’t gonna see you cry
Ain’t gonna turn around
Ain’t gonna turn around
Ain’t gonna turn around for you
Ain’t gonna turn around
This time

Why Won't You Tell Me

I'll Be Gone

Why are boys all the same?
Possession is the name of the game.
Stake your claim. Ball and chain.
But some of us just can't be tamed.

CHORUS:
Baby I...
I don't belong to anyone
I live my life, til my livin's done
And if you insist upon, hanging on
Better think twice 'cause I'll be gone!

I'll Be gone

Baby don't you know, I won't flee.
And still you gotta try and cage me.
Make me into your little pet.
And wrap that collar around my neck.

CHORUS

Well I still remember that day.
It was like any other day.
When I knew, I had been caught.
Between those eyes and my second thoughts.

CHORUS

I'll Be Gone, I'll Be Gone
Well I'll Be Gone, I'll Be Gone

Well I still 
remember that day.
It was like 
any other day.
When I knew, 
I had been caught.
Between those eyes 
and my second thoughts.

I'll Be Gone, I'll Be Gone
Well I'll Be Gone, I'll Be Gone


I'll Be Gone

I Still Believe

I try and try and try to please
‘Till I get down on my knees
Against the grain, I fill the need
Against the odds, I still believe

Get up, get up, get up and stand
I'll let me know that I’m your man
I know sometimes it’s hard to see
When I’m with you, I still believe

Ooh…

And everything I leave behind
Pick up my heart, my worried mind 
Dress the wounds from which I bleed
And with your help, I will believe 

Ooh…

Let me do this one more time
Learn from the lessons and the lies
Show everyone the way I see
Thanks to you, I still believe

Ooh…


I Still Believe

Brian and I couldn't resist doing a little bit of "in situ" recording last night with the big storms rolling through, granted its rough (with a side of Chloe) but damn doesn't that thunder have great timing!! :)

Big Storm LIVE

A  bare bones version of Whiskey Red... just Leigh on her "baritone bass" and vocals... even stripped back, it holds up well!

Whiskey Red - Bare Bones

SWIG is:  Brian Petersen — Guitar &amp; Vocals   |  Leigh Marino — Bass &amp; Vocals   |  Jamie Jackson — Drums  

Hailed as "the sexy stoner rock band that Indianapolis has been missing..." SWIG offers a unique blend of Alt Rock and Blues permeated with deep grooves, impassioned vocals and smoky, sultry, undertones.

Remember that feeling you got, when you discovered a new band or song that makes you feel giddy with excitement? And you couldn't wait to turn your friends onto it? We do... and that's what we hope Swig listeners will do. 

We call our sound "Indy-blues", but we've also been described as Alt Rock, Indie Rock, Rock/Blues and even Stoner Rock... that made us smile! The simplest way to describe it? We're a power trio who rock by integrating and adapting all the styles of music that we love and grew up on. 

We ARE music lovers after all! So it just feels natural to draw inspiration from all of the genres we enjoy – be it honkey tonk or blues, classic rock or funk, jazz or indie rock. 

Rather than being too concerned about sounding a certain way, we listen, study (and borrow from) anything that moves us — or as Stevie would say, "makes our hips move"! 

So, the best way to sum it up? SWIG plays the blues with an indie rock attitude, (and in Indianapolis) therein the "Indy-Blues".
