Jane 'Jetblack' Setter (vocals): Biker chick (I ride a Yamaha VS535 Virago), phonetician, sophisticate, babe, intellectual, natural wit, vocalist extraordinaire, and extremely modest to boot - Jane's got it all really. Described as an "exceptional frontwoman", with a range and style which copes easily with the rigours of Robert Plant, the attitude of Deborah Harry, the range of Rainbow's various vocalists and the cool of Hendrix, it is Jane's versatility and stage presence which make the Swallow experience one not to be missed. Jane also sings in original prog rock band Crimson Sky and for Run Like Hell, featuring the Pink Floyd Experience, and even plays the tambourine ... So come on down!

Diane 'Mistress Mercy' Fox (bass and vocals): You'd never guess this gothic chick had a very strict upbringing ... or would you? Dark horse Di's a bit of a celebrity on the Reading music scene; her activities range from bass-playing with Swallow, Aisle 22, Symphony of Pain and, formerly, the Jason Manners Blues Band, A F Harrold & his All Star Band, to working as a bass technician and merchandiser across Europe for the likes of John Wetton, It Bites, King's X, Arena, Pendragon and The Urbane. She has jammed with no less than Filmore Slim, aka Clarence 'guitar' Sims, at a Jason Manners gig in Reading's Purple Turtle. Di just can't stop herself from picking up her sexy little purple number ... and how grateful are we for that??

Nick Martin (guitar and vocals): Nick started playing guitar a long time ago and hasn't stopped yet. His early obsession with Deep Purple gave way to forays into Fusion, Art Rock, Melodic Rock and eventually Prog (hurrah!). He has plied his trade at shows up and down the land in bands such as Medicine Man and Merchant's Vice, sometimes even to an audience. Nick suffers from GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) and is never happier than when he has a new toy to play with. Swallow are proud to say that his playing styles run the whole gamut from A to B (and back again). That a new guitar, Nick ..?

Adrian Ogden (drums): To lose one drummer may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose two seems like carelessness. But that's how the band found Adrian, when he joined Jane in Run Like Hell, and a year later was recruited into Swallow as well. Having played rock, pop, blues and soul over the years - with local band Loose Tourniquet, The Briefcase Blues Brothers, and XTC tribute X-sTatiC among others - he's enjoying the chance to throw a bit of Prog into the mix as well. Adrian also plays with the Syn City Rockers, and when not behind the drums can often be found under a weatherbeaten panama hat.
