Description:

Americana with a Rock and Roll Temper.

Through wicked curves and twisting turns, the Stagger and Sway delivers acoustic-driven Americana with a Rock and Roll temper thats both off-kilter and spot-on.

Centered around songwriter Mike Lasts intimate melodies, ear-catching lyrics, and unique bite, this Eugene, OR four-piece lands somewhere in
the spectrum between Wilco and Death Cab for Cutie, delivering smart under-stated, impeccably crafted songs with skilled precision and
artful abandon.

The Stagger and Sway tours the Pacific Northwest as showgoers find themselves leaning incaptivated by vivid lyricsthen, surrendering to a raucous swell, stomping their feet and drumming on tables.

Following the Time Changes EP, their first full-length album Break Til You Bend blends country-bent ballads (Wyoming) with angular power-pop (Loudmouth Ideas), and anthemic rock (Sh*t Adv*ce) with addictively heartbreaking melodies (Eyes like David Bowie).
