Swallow & the Blackbird

Artist Website

Randy Swallow hails from the musical hot-bed of Halifax. The dynamic, blues-driven guitar tunes are crafty like pop tunes and soulful like American blues. You may hear the hint of Stevie Ray Vaughan and The Police influences, though Swallow’s fresh approach to rock songwriting has a gutsy fire that’s uniquely his own and worth diving into. Fun fact: Randy Swallow and his one-man guitar factory has been featured on the Trailer Park Boys podcast 184. 

Rob Blackburn has spent his entire life living and breathing music.  A multi-instrumentalist originally hailing from Toronto, he’s been a busy regular in the Lower Mainland music scene since first arriving in Vancouver while touring with an original band in the early 90’s.  When not on tour, you can catch Rob performing a variety of musical genres mainly on keys, vocals and guitar with a number of popular acts in town.
