Description
Swift Ships is the creative partnership of composer/arranger/guitarist Scott Loving (a.k.a. Marshall) and lyricist/vocalist Ben Shanaberger (Ken). Docked in the New York Islands, these Virginia boys create dance jams and rock ballads about misspent youth, southern romance, and criminal behavior. With the help of multi-instrumentalist/drummer Brent Cole (Memphis) and the influence of songwriters like the Rolling Stones, Willie Nelson, Ric Ocasek, and Guns N' Roses, we attempt to use the classic sounds of 70's and 80's rock, country, and pop to tell our story.
Recorded in 2006 with Mark Ospovat at Emandee in Brooklyn, "Rebel Renaissance" is our full-length debut. An electric guitar-based concept album, it is a swaggering rock and roll western documenting the life and travels of a modern American loser. Ever-present in the lyrics and music are his desensitized and wayward heart and his common penchant for sarcasm and self-destruction. Sweltering guitar solos abound, the drums 'pop' and sit high in the mix, and the baritone vocals range from a resigned whisper to a screaming growl.
