A decision is made and laser-focus righteous beliefs drown out the well-meaning words of friends and family when Uncle Ben’s Remedy offer an invitation with “Coming to the Show”. The backbeat is born in Rock’n’Roll, a template for the tracks that cross Saturday Night Swindle, the recent E.P. release from Uncle Ben’s Remedy. The small towns of western New York state are dots on a map that connect the stories in Saturday Night Swindle as the band head into a court date with “Liquor Wrote All These Songs”. Country chords define the mood that wraps around the memories of “While Back”, and haunted harmonies begin the march that walks defiantly over “From the Outside”.
 
Growing up together and becoming a band was a natural progression for Ben Westlund, Harmony Griffin, Shawn Huestis, Brendan O’Connor, and Josh Mullin, the friends that form Uncle Ben’s Remedy. A train track beat sets the pace for “Heartbreaker’s Heart” while Saturday Night Swindlewalks proudly into the album on the honky tonk Rock of “Never Get Caught”. Uncle Ben’s Remedy have a mantra that sounds out in each note, chord, and beat of Saturday Night Swindle as the boys in the band proudly stand by the statement ‘Music is Medicine”. (by Danny McCloskey)
