His performances are a musical journey that takes you from haunting old-time melodies to soaring new songs... sweeping vocal stylings, dazzling and dramatic skills as an instrumentalist; an evening spent with Oliver Swain will leave you breathless and joyful.” Oliver Swain got his start performing and writing with many of the US and Canada's most loved roots bands including The Bills, The Duhks, Outlaw Social and The Red Stick Ramblers.
He's a two time Prairie Music Award (WCMA) winner, Juno nominee and has a few "M" (Monday Magazine) and Times Colonist Music Awards under his belt. In 2011 he released In A Big Machine, hailed as "Absolutely mesmerizing"and "one of the best albums of 2011, regardless of genre", touring across Canada and the US including Folk Alliance International, Winnipeg Folk Festival, Calgary Folk Music Festival, and countless others.
Between his own shows and tours, Oliver also runs the Victoria Django Festival each February in his home city, and recently toured as one half the Leonard Cohen tribute duo project Tower of Song, as well as playing bass and some vocals with his new rock band, Fans & Motor Supply Co.
