Swing Hero-CD Review
by Tim Wenger
Marshall Gallagher has been a busy man. He has been on stage performing with 3OH!3, My Body Sings Electric, and his former group Solar Bear, that helped put him on the musical map here in Denver. He also recently released an EP as Swing Hero, a solo project that showcases Gallagher returning to his mellower roots.
The self-titled debut brings the sound of traditional emo music alive, the guitar is never overly distorted and the emphasis remains on Gallagher’s comforting voice throughout. At times he appears to be pleading, at others elucidating, but always honest and to the point with rich guitar riffs confirming his dialogue, the emo take on light alternative the way it always should have been.
