Ryan Anderson Band
My band has been called Swank for about ten years, but I recently discovered there is a British? band by the same name, so who knew? I'll guess we'll have to duke it out for the name. We do a mix of blues, soul jazz, swing, a-gog-go, and whatever else seeps into to the songs. The tunes from our two CD's are unoriginal originals, but live we do some covers as well.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We have been playing around Buenos Aires, and the rest of Argentina (where I am a cheap import)for the last ten years. Bars, nightclubs, theatres, festivals.
