The Swingin' Haymakers
- Style: Rockabilly/country swing
- Formed: 1991

- "We work the slim pickens that IS the New Orleans country music scene. We have won Best
Country Band at the Big Easy Awards, and Best Country album of 1995 by Offbeat Magazine.
In a city that ain't exactly known for its country music we have chiseled out a pretty
good following. We have played the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival twice and mostly
work the underground/alternative rock clubs.
