about
Swim in the Wild is the Adventure Alternative band of the Carolina's. A new Rock-Folk-Americana fusion with so much East Coast energy that it needs its own identity. SITW is a soundtrack to adventure, an outdoor drama, and a party by nature. Lead by dual front men (The Hall brothers) who switch back and forth on drums and strings, the band is notorious for their spirited performances and big harmonies. Most often being complimented for their original sound, the band does get some comparisons to notable rock groups like Young the Giant, Kings of Leon, My Morning Jacket mixed with folks flavors of the Avett Brothers. Making their splash in the spotlight with their first self titled EP in 2013 and LP "One if By Land" 2016, Swim in the Wild's fanbase took on their own persona as the "Swim team" throughout the southeast. Most recently, Swim in the Wild finished out their 2022 tour with notable performances at Floydfest, Fall for Greenville, Queen City Jam Session and their album release show for the highly anticipated LP "Two if by Sea."
