Roaming the globe, cruising along the road less travelled, The Nomad makes music that pushes the boundaries.
His latest offering Perilous Times sees The Nomad (aka Daimon Schwalger) keep things fresh, taking off on a new tangent by blending signature sounds of reggae, drum & bass, jungle and electronica but crafting it with a particularly dubstep focused lean.
Moving to Australia in 2008 to expand his networks and develop his musical creativity proved to be a catalyst for The Nomad and resulted in Perilous Times.
Armed only with an outline of one song – a draft drum beat, guitars laid down by Tehi Mana Kerr (Fat Freddy’s Drop) and bass by Crete Haami-Jones (Hollie Smith band) – The Nomad pieced together “Devil In The Dark” upon first arriving. He later co-opted then ex-pat, Julia Deans (Fur Patrol), to appear on vocals and Myele Manzanza (Electric Wire Hustle) to round the song out with drums.
