"...John Swanson, a singer/songwriter from Denver....is dishing up tasty jazz tunes in the big band swing style. Accompanying himself with slick jazz guitar, John is making a name for himself in Colorado. His vocals are reminiscent of crooners of an other era, but his clever songs but him in this century. That makes his work multi-generational, allowing him to play clubs for wide audiences."
