Artist description
The Black Swans perform most often as a two-piece band, made up of Jerry DeCicca (singer, songwriter, guitar) and Noel Sayre (violin). Formed in 1999, they make a sound that is austere and dark and slow like a whisper ...
The lyrics have a purposeful drift, playing out strained, private moments similar to early-70s Kristofferson or the confessional fragments of Robert Creeley. Guilt and doubt run through the songs, but they are ultimately ethereal and elegiac. |
