Artist description Summer in Memphis. A trio of musicians and friends burns through a rythym-driven tune that blends modern rock, funk and a little Memphis soul. The audience moves with, and is moved by, the music. It's hot, humid and sticky -- blood, sweat and tears without the blood and tears. Swelter is in the house, and it's just as hot inside as it is out.

Music Style Alternative Rock

Artist History Formerly the rythym section for the now-defunct Memphis group Five Times Fast, the three joined forces to create Swelter in July of 2002. Swelter has performed all over Memphis, Jackson, and Nashville, Tennessee.
