The Swinging Richards
Hello!.................HELLO!!!! We're The Swinging Richards (no not the "hey is your wife a swinger" type swinger but the Rat-Pack kinda "swingers") We have been together for about a year now and have just recently mastered the art of basement recording with a somewhat antiquated 24 track recorder. We are too old and tired to play in bars till 4:00 a.m. so this is gonna have to do! If you think otherwise...think again....did I mention we’re geezers?..........nuff said!
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
History is written by the victors.................do we look or sound like "victors" to you? I don't even know anyone named Victor so shove off chalkie!
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Not any more. I always enjoyed playing in front of an adoring audience......and.................the post gig trim!
Your musical influences
Rockabilly, The Beatles, The Everly Brothers, and that chick that sang "I got a Brand New Pair of Rolerskates"...................she ROCKS!!!!!!
What equipment do you use?
A bunch of old type ..............crud.............and soforth.
Anything else?
Nope! that about does it!
