April 17, 2014MC Swamptiger is hands down one of the most unique musical experience's you'll get in Washington, whether he is doing a live performance with his loop pedal or with one of his bands (most recent of which is Casual Friday), the show put on is one you will remember for years to come if not the rest of your life. He brings to the table a level of creativity rarely seen in modern music, blending extreme lyricism skill with the ability to accurately incorporate inspiration gathered from a large variety of music genres, as well as creating practically every song from scratch instrumental and all without writing anything down - these days usually with the help of Casual - creating an art that is entirely his own. This is dictionary definition genius.

Swamptiger vs. Casual Friday bring a distinct and memorable live performance incorporating multi-instrumental looping, beatboxing and strong lyrical content. Maintaining a balance of insightful wordplay and upbeat, fun instrumentation they provide a great atmosphere and enjoyable experience for any party goer or concert attendee.
Deep under the shadow of the dome in gloomy Olympia, WA live two remarkable musicians. The amazing multi-instrumentalist Sander Swalling codename "Casual Friday" lays down the bass, keys, guitar and percussion while the veteran MC Swamptiger mixes and loops live. Their sound incorporates elements of funk, blues, 70s rock and 90s hip hop, they maintain a balance of upbeat instrumentation and cynical philosophy based lyricism.
