She Swings, She Sways #11 on eMusic
I was just finishing up my 75 music downloads on eMusic for December and realized that She Swings, She Sways are on the top downloads page. #11 as I write this blog post in fact. Holy crap! That is too cool since they are local boys on the Authentic Label here in Des Moines. Very cool to see local talent doing so well outside the confines of the Midwest.
