Do you want to win some exclusive stuff from special Michigan Swellers shows?! Well, today is your lucky day. We’re celebrating our two year anniversary as a blog, and we just happen to have these two posters laying around to give out! The first is from the Detroit date of the Pentimento and Diamond Youth tour. The second is (obviously) from the amazing tenth anniversary show last August.
We will ALSO be giving away an exclusive hand-written lyric sheet for “Montreal Screwjob” (thanks Nick!), because it’s always been a favorite of ours, and the guys once learned how to play it just for us and our friends last year
What do you have to do to win?! All you have to do is be a follower of the blog and send us a story about your favorite Swellers-related moment from the past two years. It could be a live show, something funny/stupid the guys did, something you did with your friends, ANYTHING. Just your favorite memory that involves the band from the past two years. All we ask is that submissions be at least one decent sized paragraph. We will select a winner on MAY 11th, when Kyle is here in Michigan with me (Kayla).
We’re so happy to have been around for this long and for all the experiences we’ve been able to have because of the blog. We hope you guys feel the same way. We seriously can’t wait to start digging through all the submissions.

And then there were drums. Tracking Day 1.
HOW fucking stoked is everyone for the NEW Swellers album?
\ Kyle
The Swellers announce new singles released by No Sleep Records and release new demo. Drummer Jonathan Diener takes the mic for the first time in “Bad News.”
Finally get to announce our new Singles 7” release with No Sleep Records and the first time I ever sing on a Swellers song. Spread the word!
There you have it. This is exactly why they are the greatest band ever hahahahahaha.

COULD BE an April Fool’s joke. I bet it’s a half lie, half truth. It might be a “new” song but it’s also going to be a joke song.
I guess we’ll see!
