Louden Swain

The band members of the Indy Band Louden Swain.

I was doing some editing from my MinnCon 2015 Saturday Night Special folder and found these gems.

The Indy Band Louden Swain from California. One of my favourite bands to hear live! The members include Rob Benedict: Vocals and Guitar, Billy Moran: Guitar and Vocals, Stephen Norton: Drums and Vocals and Mike Borja: Bass and Vocals.Rob Benedict MinnCon SNS 2015-1

Rob Benedict

Lead singer and guitarist

What can I say about Rob other that when he sings he puts his whole heart and soul into it and you can tell that just by listening to him belt out songs like “She waits”. Which is a very personal song for him and for me…. If you ever get a chance to listen to it, do. Other of my favs include “Eskimo, Sky Alive and Like a Heart Goes.Stephen Norton MinnCon SNS 2015-1

Stephen Norton

Drummer

I love Stephen, I think most of the time the drummer in most bands are overlooked not because they are not good but because they are in the background, hidden behind the other band members and their kit. But Stephen is a great drummer and an all around awesome guy!! ❤ him so much!Mike Borja MinnCon SNS 2015-1

Michael Borja

Bass guitarist and vocals.

Mike is great, the few times that I have had the pleasure of talking to him he is a nice and friendly guy and very funny. They are all very sweet guys and they love their fans!Billy Moran MinnCon SNS 2015-1

Billy Moran

Guitarist and vocals.

Billy is an awesome guitarist. His solos are amazing and I could listen to him continuously and a super sweet guy.

I can not wait to see them live again, but that is not until July in Pittsburgh. Guess I will have to wear out my discs until then.


 

I have learned that I love shooting live bands, each time I do I catch something different!  I have many more shots that I will be uploading to my flickr account over the next few days so be sure to check them out!

Thanks for stopping by and reading my ramblings…
