AUGUST 19, 2009 - There is a brand new section here at www.swivek.com - In my quest to start writing a bit more I've decided to share with you a little of what I've written in the past (and hopefully in the future) so there is now a brand new BRAD'S WRITING section. So check out our BLOG, the BRAD'S WRITING and the LYRICS pages for the albums to read all of my deepest (and shallowest) thoughts.

Also the new album is gearing up for a release this fall - EVERYBODY HATES YOU is the title and it's a whole new direction of Swivek - so get your wigs and keys ready kiddies cuz it'll be here before you know it! Mmmmwaaa!

SWIVEK is gearing up to release some new music late spring or early summer of '09 so hold onto your wigs and keys kiddies! Also in the works, our good pal and old Flexible Records co-signee Warmer is working up a new remix cover version of our single FABULOUS and it's going to be well, fabulous! Until all this new stuff is out and about - check out some new features including our MUSIC page where you can download some classic Swivek tunes as well as full albums (including artwork) or buy Swivek CDs - check it out and check back for more news!
DECEMBER 23, 2008 - I just finished up a brand new Swivek video! Can you even believe it? We (me and the voices in my head) were wrapping presents and singing songs when I decided it was high time Swivek did a Christmas song so we amped up the mic and did a little rocking cover of "Blue Christmas" and now there's a hot little video to go along with it - so wrap yourself up in some twinkle lights, grab a spiced egg nog and watch our video!

You can also download the song by clicking HERE!

 

September 2008 -

THE BRAND NEW SWIVEK SINGLE FABULOUS IS NOW AVAILABLE 

 

JULY 2008 - I decided to take the old webcam and make myself a video - luckily I'm a musician so I had something to lipsynch to - not that it matters as nothing really matches up and it's really just an experiment gone hysterically wrong... None the less, Swivek has made a video and because I have no shame I am sharing it with you. Perhaps I should've had that ring on my finger before showing this to the Leivas as he insists I have lost my mind...

You'll laugh, you'll hack - it's the very first Swivek video "FLIRT"

JUNE 12, 2008

It's been forever but we finally have some things abrewing here in Swivek land.

First I've been working and working all spring long for new songs and am so very close to finally be satisfied with them. A working album title is Everybody Hates You but I may have to venture back in the 'studio' for some new beats - but there will be a single this summer fer sure, fer sure.

And in producing news - Swivek (Bradley Jacobson) is producing a track for LA glitteratti glam slams Shitting Glitter that will (hopefully) be on their new summer single as a B-side!

So keep checking back we will be updating more and more and check your emails for the latest news - and of course our My Space page for more frequent updates I SWEAR!

NOVEMBER 14, 2007

Our Flex Rex friends have left the building - that's right kiddies - there is no more Flexible Records so we're forced into giving our music away ourselves! And when I say ourselves I mean me, Bradley, Swivek if you will... so run your digits over the album cover and you will find yourself in a whole new state of colour - where you can download FOR FREE! the latest Swivek album  INTO THE BLUE

 ..Into the Blue is another varied entry into the vast Swivek repertoire, from the power-bop of the original "Flirt" to the electronic space drones of "She is Peace" and the manic "Happy Happy Happy" which is like a rum and Coke spiked with a shot of pure dopamine. The LP is tempered with some mellower moments, like the ultra-catchy modern pop of "Not a Love Song" and the tender "Deep Inside", where Bradley really allows the inner flame of his smoky voice to burn through. All that plus a very random electro take on a Pat Benatar classic. Into the Blue is short, sweet and to the point. Just set your iPod to "repeat". 

 

 

As you wait in crazed anticipation for the new Swivek album to be released next week, I have some very cool news - the latest and greatest Flexible Records Halloween compilation is now up and ready to download for free! Featuring some very scary, exciting and exclusive tracks from Flexible Records artists all over the world Musik For Spinnen contains an all new Swivek track! An electronic rendering of an old folky tale of marriage proposals gone wrong and twisted sick murder - "Banks Of The Ohio", a song recorded by the likes of Olivia Newton-John, Kristen Hersch, Johnny Cash and now us! So head on over to Flexible Records and download Musik For Spinnen - it'll get your creepy crawlies crawling and creeping.

UPDATE - Head to our MP3 Page to download Swivek's "Banks Of The Ohio"
