The multi-talented artist was also recently named one of Music Connection magazine’s Hot 100 Unsigned Bands & Artists of the year (December 2010 issue).

Swirsky’s highly anticipated sophomore album, Watercolor Day, has received a host of rave reviews since its release. In addition, the 18-track record has been named “The First Great Power Pop Record of 2010,” by John M. Borack in Goldmine Magazine.

Praise for Swirsky’s album spans all segments of the entertainment spectrum. Renowned film director Cameron Crowe said: “Watercolor Day is a gorgeous pop puzzle, and every piece is perfection. It’s a rainy day classic, and a sunny day masterpiece.”

Jack Oliver, President of The Beatles label, Apple Records, from 1969-1971, said, “On Watercolor Day, Seth has the remarkable ability to capture the sounds and vibe of ’60s and ’70s pop music and lay it before us as something new. A treat for those of us who love pure pop music from that era.”

Swirsky is also the hit songwriter and co-leader of the acclaimed, British Invasion-minded duo with Mike Ruekberg, The Red Button, which has also earned rave reviews for the album She’s About To Cross My Mind. Swirsky and Ruekberg are slated to release a second album in winter 2011.

“If The Red Button’s big Beatlesy powerpop could be described in bold poster colours, then this – Seth’s second solo album – is, as the title implies, all summer pastels and watercolours. Slip this one on the personal stereo and head for the beach,” raved Paul Suggitt of the popular UK-based magazine, Shindig!
