The current band lineup includes, Tilian Pearson (clean vocals), Jon Mess (unclean vocals), Will Swan(lead guitar), Tim Feerick (bass guitar), Matthew Mingus (drums, percussion), and Andrew Wells (rhythm guitar). They are commonly known for their post-hardcore sound and can be compared to similar sounding bands like the Fall of Troy and Circa Survive. Just this past year, the band released their eight studio album entitled Artificial Selection. The 14 track record performed well and peaked number 15 on the U.S. Billboard 200 in 2018.
Not only does Swanfest mark the beginning of another great annual festival, but it also marks the beginning of the band’s ‘The Artificial Selection Tour’. Get your tickets below for a great time at the first ever Swanfest!
