Dan St.Yves' "Roots Resonator": Oliver Swain '18

Having had a lengthy and extended conversation with the multi-talented singer/songwriter/instrumentalist Oliver Swain back in 2015, I will confess to being a bit nervous filling my allotted time during this conversation. I need not have worried, we went overtime and I learned more about this gentleman's accomplished career than I had even researched ahead for BOTH interviews!

Oliver Swain plays string bass, guitar, banjo, and composes primarily in folk roots music, but he also recently has undertaken scores for theatrical productions. He has played with some of the most creative forces in the music business, and travelled the world to inspire those diverse sounds.

In this conversation we catch up on his latest projects, his 2015 album, and discover what is right around the corner in his musical world.
