Indie rock experimentalists Swarming Branch have one permanent member, Andrew Graham, and a rotating crew of musicians to help him fill out his wildly diverse songs. After two albums with RTFO Bandwagon, Graham formed Andrew Graham & Swarming Branch, expanding his scope to include glam rock, country boogie, Tin Pan Alley, swampy blues-pop, and weird rock & roll rave-ups. The first recording was "Alien Skaters," followed by an LP, Andrew Graham's Good Word (2010). The next album, Classic Glass (2013), featured drummer Lon Leary and solidified pianist Dane Terry's position as Graham's right-hand man. Surreal Number (2016), produced by Rob Barbato and engineered by Drew Fischer, was just as diverse and weird as previous works, but had a bigger, fuller sound. ~ Tim Sendra
