Sounds Like
Swish and Flick sounds like a debauched party in the Slytherin common room after defeating Gryffindor for the quidditch cup. In other words, like Cookie Galore using a time-turner to go back to the 80's to make rap music with Bernard Sumner and Rick Rubin as their producers.
NOT YOUR LITTLE SISTER'S WIZARD ROCK!
Swish and Flick is the side project of Cookie Galore (the fabulous synth pop trio who has been making music for over 10 years together). We are inspired by the Harry Potter books, films, and fandom, including other wizard rock bands.
Our mission is threefold:
1. To inspire everybody to shake their booty.
2. To make people laugh, preferably with us rather than at us.
3. To encourage others to embrace the Harry Potter universe, thus making OUR universe a better place with love, unity, peace, and tolerance.
WE ARE AVAILABLE TO PERFORM AT:
Parties
Music Venues
Libraries
Harry Potter Conferences
Anywhere with an electrical outlet

Who are Swish and Flick?
SWISH
AKA Astoria Greengrass-Malfoy (That's right, wee-oches! I'm married to Draco!)
The MC master mind of this project, kickin' the brand new flava in yer expandable ear. She graduated from Hogwarts in 1999 as a Slytherin. When Swish wrocks out, she is the embodiment of herself at age 16, in her 6th year at school (sort of like the memory of Tom Riddle from his diary). That was the year when Hogwarts was under the regime of a Slytherin headmaster who turned a blind eye to all her naughtiness. Swish raps about her extracurricular activities at Hogwarts such as snogging Draco Malfoy, sneaking out at night to have torrid affairs with Death Eaters, drinking firewhiskey, getting into fights, and engaging in general debauchery.
FLICK
AKA Un-named Slytherin in the Background
The ingenious producer of this project who helps Swish record the backing tracks. He also lays down some pretty phat beats. Sometimes Flick transfigures himself into a green ibook computer when he accompanies Swish on stage, but most of the time, he wrocks out on guitar. He works within the muggle world as an engineer who makes wrockin' guitar pedals.
Swish writes sexy-evil HP fan fiction. For mature readers only (sorry kids). Read it Here

i would love to! ultimately, that's part of my goal, to be able to go to cons and gatherings with my equipment and do fandom tattoos <3 but it feels like it's a long road getting there sometimes. lol
