SWELL PEOPLE
FRANK CALLAIO
"Garcia"
Garcia (Lead Vocals / Guitars) has a golden ear and has forgotten more about singing lead and harmony than you will ever learn. He once met Jerry when he was tripping and J thought he was looking into a mirror.
CHIP ELMBLAD
"El Guapo"
El Guapo plays lead guitar and sings for Swell. He also makes a plethora of guitars and mandolins in Divide, CO as Blues Road Guitars. Some people think he looks like Eric Clapton or Trey Anastasio. Most don't.
RICH CURRIER
"Rico"
Rico sings and plays Guitar and Pedal Steel in Swell. He's a player's player and knows every song ever written in the history of the Universe. But he only plays the good ones.
TODD PYLE
"Rock Pyle"
Rock Pyle claims that Louie Belson was his relative and that drumming is in his genes. We just hope he drums in his jeans, cause we can't think about the alternative.
MICHAEL MANKOWSKI
"El Loco"
El Loco has the largest physical music collection known to man. He's a superb bassist and brings deep cuts from that collection to his work with Swell. Did we say deep cuts? All the way to the bone, baby!
ALLISON RING
"Alli Rose"
Alli Rose plays keys and adds incredible lead and harmony vocals to Swell. She's the secret sauce to Swell shows and we (and you) are lucky to have her!
