Les Greene & The Swayzees // Barry Jean Fontenot

Les Greene & The Swayzees vibrantly bring you a powerful force of roots rock ‘n’ soul. With a high energy twist on the genre all while staying true to its sound, this is the unique yet recognizable spin that music needs right now and hasn’t seen in some time.

Hailing from the vibrant musical landscape of Baltimore, Les Greene was destined for a life steeped in rhythm and melody. From a young age, he was drawn to the soulful sounds that permeated the streets of his hometown. Greene immersed himself in the rich musical heritage of his city, honing his craft and developing his own unique voice as a musician. At the core of Greene’s music lies a deep reverence for the traditions of soul, but he’s never been one to simply replicate the sounds of the past. Instead, he infuses his music with a modern sensibility, blending elements of RB, funk, and jazz to create a sound that feels both timeless and fresh. His songs are a testament to the enduring power of soul music—a celebration of love, loss, and the human experience.
