Swaz Benjamin Drops Killer New Visuals for Chasm Remix ‘Daze Gone Bye (9pm in Hobart)'

Tasmanian wordsmith/songwriter Swaz Benjamin has released visuals for a remix of his debut album’s title track ‘Daze Gone Bye’.

The remix ‘Daze gone Bye (9pm in Hobart)’ by Sydney-based producer Chasm - most known for his work with twice ARIA nominated group Astronomy Class and artists such as Hilltop Hoods, Thundamentals, Ash Grunwald, Pegz, The Bamboos and 360 -  exemplifies the flexibility and applicability of Swaz’s lyricism over diverse production. The ‘9pm in Hobart’ remix finds inspiration in UK production stylings with the urban night visuals complimenting the track’s innovative sound.

On the single Swaz said, “I wrote most of this song and much of the end of the album during significantly difficult times in my life - some of the hardest I've ever faced. The death of a loved one and the breakdown of a committed long term relationship at the same time. Two of the closest people to me were no longer physically present in my life,”

“My music has been an anchor for me, those negative experiences have made me acutely aware that life is short and that I want pursue things I'm passionate about -which are founded in creativity and collaborating with other artists,”

The lyrical content of the song summarises the ethos for Swaz’s 10-track studio album ‘Souled Out Volume One: Daze Gone Bye’.

Swaz recently formed a band to help launch the vinyl EP, with the launch to be held at The Republic Bar & Cafe, in North Hobart on Sunday 13th January, 2019 from 3pm till midnight with an array of other performers. Having kicked things off at The Falls Festival in Marion Bay over New Year’s Eve - ‘Swaz & The Benjamins’ are booked for a string of shows over the Australian summer.

The audio for ‘9pm in Hobart’ is now available on all major streaming platforms, alongside ‘Days’ - the lead single from the ‘Souled Out Volume One’ digital LP. His albums are available at swzmusic.bandcamp.com
