Seattle's own Sweet Water band has a new release and new shows coming up!
from Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris · host Darrell Craig Harris
Born in the heart of Seattle's early '90s scene, Sweet Water forged their own path - mixing glam, punk, power pop into something raw, loud, soulful, and unforgettable. While the world was grunge-obsessed, they chased melody and groove, channeling rock's golden age with a high-voltage twist. Their early records were lightning in a bottle. Tracks like "Everything Will Be Alright" and "Superstar" earned a cult following, fueled by massive hooks and frontman Adam Czeisler's Bowie-meets-Lou Reed swagger. As trends shifted, Sweet Water stayed sharp - Suicide (1999) brought a leaner edge, while Clear the Tarmac (2009), Dance Floor Kills (2013), and Firebird (2018) proved they never lost the spark. Now, with decades under their belt and fire still in their veins, Sweet Water returns with Shine On (dropping Sept. 2025) - a record that blends classic punch with new textures and deeper lyrical depth. The first single, "Kids" (out April 18), shows them wilder, wiser, and ready to blow the roof off. In a world of trends, Sweet Water is the real thing. And they're not done — not even close. www.Instagram.com/sweetwaterrocks www.Facebook.com/adamcredocolechris www.sweetwaterrocks.com About Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris The Music Matters Podcast is hosted by Darrell Craig Harris, a globally published music journalist, professional musician, and Getty Images photographer.
