"The band's no-holds-barred attitude, combining noisy jams and instrumental virtuosity, sounds inventive even in this postmodern age of information overload...This excellent disc will engage thoughtful rock fans in search of something fresh." -- Gene Armstrong, reviewing Let it Come Down in the Tucson Weekly, February 25, 2010.
"Which is Perry's favorite Arizona band? He mentions the Swigs, a band he saw at the Red Room two nights prior.

"Longtime local musician Kevin Henderson, guitarist with the rock band The Swigs, has issued a top-notch double CD that is, for the most part, truly a solo effort--and on his own label, too..."
"Whether playing acoustic or electric, Henderson proves his mettle, producing a fevered sound that at times recalls the folk, pop, country, blues, prog rock and jazz of musical progenitors Jeff Beck, Sandy Bull, Steve Howe, Bill Nelson and Leo Kottke, among others."
"Ambient, psychedelic, drifting and strange - this album oozes cool but does so in a way that’s quite hard to put your finger on." -- Subcity Radio, Glasgow, UK
Sapient Records is pleased to announce the release of Kevin Henderson's double CD, Watch Your Head.
