The Marina Swingers performed their first show at LMU - 1 mile from Marina Del Rey, Ca and their last gig at Redondo Beaches’ local nite club favorite the Sweetwater a couple months before a wrecking ball leveled it into obscurity. For three years the group performed many wild shows in the LA and South Bay areas playing in clubs like The Whiskey A Go Go, The Roxy, and The Troubadour and opened for such zesty acts as Oingo Boingo, Wall of Voodoo, the Blasters, the Bangles, 20/20 and Romeo Void. Mark Mothersbaugh of DEVO once called them the best new band in LA. The Swingers’ live shows were a tour de force and the various studio recordings demonstrated the band’s unique style, creativity and insane imagination. The Swingers also did a couple stints on the USA Network’s New Wave Theatre and had minimal radio exposure on KMET, KROQ, The Dr. Demento Show and KXLU radio.

Original members Eddie and Jocko still carry on the Marina Swingers tradition with new recordings and remixes. Their latest is a tribute to Barack Obama, appropriately entitled "The Barack Obama Song".
