Describe:Schwab Music is a large piece of swampfunk, a pound of electrosoul and a pint of boogie rock but here's what clever folk write:
Single reviews:
“ A new east London 5-piece from East London that are so dripping in retro soul and funk, yet are supercharged with a colossal rocket of fuzz. David Holmes would kill to make music like this.”
Chris (Rough Trade Best of 2004 compilation sleeve notes)
"Dog-rough guitars, a good tune…a short welcome blast of reckless rock'n'roll fun. " -Sharon O'Connell Timeout
“If you like all-nighters that play frantic Psych rock, northern soul stompers and high energy rock'n'roll and you're also fond of a witty lyric, then this is right up your alley“ - Stuart Turnbull Sleazenation
Schwab live reviews:
". . .there are no musical boundaries in Schwab's world. The preacherman delivery. . . rumbling bass grooves, deliciously funky guitar licks. . .hip-hop beats. . assorted samples and drones . . . comprise their relentless block-rocking party tunes." - Notting Hill Arts Club Rota Sessions; Oct 2004. Niall O'Keeffe NME
"SchwaB…Despite facing an audience unaccustomed to real dancing, this band got people grooving and ended up with by far the best response of the night. There was something likeable about SchwaB; they connected." ; Nov 2004 Bath, Purr Club, supporting The Mooney Suzuki
