Watch: The Swiss European Tour
What happens on tour stays on tour, or so the saying goes. Party-makers The Swiss decided to ignore this age-old decree and kept a careful diary of the shenangians as they whirled across Europe playing 10 cities in 15 days in support of their recent offering 'Double or Nothing'. Check it out.
Get your copy of said release: iTunes (AUS), iTunes (US), Mod Shop, Piccadilly and stay tuned for more news - and tunes - from the boys this year.

Best of: The Swiss Reflect on Great Songs Listened To But Not Released This Year
We were running the risk of getting lost in a sea of awesome newness so we asked disco lifers The Swiss to reflect on some of the golden oldies they enjoyed most this year.
Their selection paints quite a picture, given they've spent the great part of 2011 either holed up in a studio finessing their new material, or on the road in support of the recent 'Double or Nothing' EP.

The Swiss
In a time when everyone who isn't Crookers is claiming to be a "disco act", there is an insurmountable wash of pretenders. Adelaide trio The Swiss, however, are a legit live disco band who's existence is based on entirely on flavour and good times rather than the Cobra Snake and fitted caps.
