About Who We Are And What We Do
Swift Ships is the creative partnership of Scott Loving and Ben Shanaberger - two quiet delinquents who enjoy the chase after a good song.
About Our Records
"Losers and Sluts" is our new album. We recorded it on a Korg D-1200 in various living quarters around the East Village and Brooklyn over the last two years. The songs were originally intended to serve as demos, but we became rather partial to the performances and quickly grew uninspired with the practice of rerecording our material. It will be available to consumers of compact discs on August 18. That's official. For now, settle your ears on the selections we've made available above.
"Rebel Renaissance," our first studio record, is of course available to you in its many forms, all found below, twenty-four hours a day. "Swift Ships' greatness hits you immediately," say the reviewers. It's a swaggering, pretty collection of songs that we encourage you to purchase.
