TONI SWAIN

Original Australian Soul at its best.

Toni's live performances are stylish, sophisticated and powerful.
Touted as "Australia's best blues singer", Toni's voice is a natural gift, swelling with warm and depth.
Gritty blues ballads, latin dance rhythms, heart-wrenching soul destroyers and r & b toe tappers, Toni's eclectic style "defies categorization" offering something for everyone in the crowd.

The true art in Toni’s music lies in her live performance, where humility and subtlety bridle at odds with an unstoppable force of nature – that voice, that clarion-rising. Just when you think you’re on easy street riding a tested hook and a melody, Toni takes it all to a higher place, its rightful place, and suddenly everything is well with the world,
for that one perfect and unforgettable moment in song.

Surrounded by exquisite players, the best jazz and blues players from Australia and New Zealand,
the Toni Swain Band is elevated to the international stage.

RAY BEADLE - guitar

Roy Payne has been the guitarist in Toni's band. It is with great sadness that Roy suddenly passed away on 16 July.

Toni has been able to recruit Ray Beadle as replacement guitarist. Ray is Australia's number 1 blues guitar virtuoso with a magic voice to boot.
