Shwayze

Shwayze's story of success is considerably short, taking in mind that gut was all he needed to achieve his dream. In 2005, Shwayze made his own destiny by jumping on-stage with Cisco Adler during a Whitestarr show and free-styling. That defining moment was followed by regular meetings between the two and the result of their creative sessions was more than they could ask for. A bunch of fresh tracks serving as a melting pot of hip-hop rhythms, acoustic guitars and easy-listening melody created a wave of success for both. Shwayze was then signed to Geffen/Suretone Records where he recorded and released his self-titled debut in 2008. Following the success of their first album, Shwayze and Cisco released two more albums together; 2009’s edgy, experimental electro-rock release Let It Beat and last year’s more contemporary Island In The Sun. With the mixtape he just released in collaboration with Sky Blu and Mark Rosas – known all together as W.E.E.D. (We Evolve Every Day) – Shwayze is taking in all aspects of music, experimenting with new sounds and working on creating his first solo album -- due out in fall 2012.
