SWING KIDS formed in the mid '90s out of a mix of obscure punk, hardcore, and geographyspecific social politics. The band, made up of Justin Pearson, Jose Palafox, John Brady and Eric Allen drew inspiration from jazz and swing era ethics, creating a strand of genre-defying music. The band was short lived, documenting their entire existence in a handful of songs/releases over a couple of years. The band did their last few shows recruiting Jimmy Lavalle who was part of notable acts such as THE LOCUST, THE CRIMSON CURSE, THE BLACK HEART PROCESSION, GOGOGO AIRHEART, and ALBUM LEAF, to play second guitar. Then the unexpected happened; guitarist and founding member of SWING KIDS and UNBROKEN, Eric Allen, took his own life. Over a decade later, and Eric still lives on in his music.
For the first time, all of the band's recordings have been remastered by Brent Asbury to be released as the complete Anthology.
