Mr. Wally Swiatly
BIO: Being the youngest of 9 children, I grew up listening to
anything and everything since as far back as I can remember.
I've been singing for roughly 30 years.
I am a singer/songwriter and professional singer of about 20
years. My vocal style is somewhat a combination of Modern
Country/Classic Rock. My vocal range is a tenor. I can sing
extremely light and clean or soulfully strong and harsh when

taken the crowd with you on a ride during a live performance.
