Truth Teller


Last summer, Schwervon! took a break from the hustle and bustle of their home headquarters in New York City and headed south to the land of Elvis and Stax Records (Memphis, TN). Their mission was to record with legendary indie rock engineer Doug Easley (Pavement, Sonic Youth, Cat Power). Truth Teller is an early taste of Schwervon!’s summer session with Easley.

Additional chorus vocals are by Frances McKee, of legendary Glaswegian band The Vaselines. Schwervon! befriended McKee after opening for The Vaselines on their European tour in 2011.

We are going to digitally stream a new track every other Friday for the months of January, February and March of 2012. As if that wasn’t exciting enough, each new song will be offered as a free download for the first week of it’s release.

Schwervon! Sat. Jan. 14th @ Alternate White House in Brooklyn

New Year. New Site. New Songs.

Happy New Year and welcome to the new Schwervon! website. Lots of new stuff going on here. Nan and I took a trip down south this summer to play some shows and record for a few days in Memphis, Tennessee with legendary sound engineer Doug Easley (Pavement, Cat Power, Sonic Youth, Grifters). After a quick stop off at Graceland we brought the tracks back to the Olive Juice Music lab to sprinkle it with our own special NYC fairy dust.

We figured now is as good a time as any to unleash our sonic babies on the world. As I write we are preparing the tracks for mastering. So, stay tuned. We are going to digitally stream a new track every other Friday for the months of January, February and March of 2012, starting on lucky Friday the 13th! As if that wasn’t exciting enough, each new song will be offered as a free download for the first week of it’s release. Here’s to a good year!
love,
MMM (& Nan)
