Thee Swank Bastards at Champagnes, Sunday May 28, 2017


The Swank Bastards, the band that will play anywhere at any time, took over local dive bar, Champagnes on Sunday night and packed the place with friends and surf/instrumental fanatics. This eve's line-up included the Heximers backing up guitarist Jesse and they entertained as Jesse showed off his lightnin' fast riffs and fancy footwork, Denise displayed beauty'n'class'n'bass runs galore (and blinded everyone with her mirrored pick guard on her Framus bass), while Clay held down the swingin' back-beat while eating a cheeseburger (Champagnes had a BBQ goin' on out back) and drinkin' multiple drinks. Good time had by all! I hope that Champagnes does more shows like this - cool bands and early nights are a great Sunday treat!
