An indie rock supergroup with ties to <a href="spotify:artist:22ojy4H4ZVpowC4lRRC8In">Destroyer</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4mO4aGO6u29UyR6XLZR9XW">the New Pornographers</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4kmq4NmMAD2EB24v6Il3qr">Sunset Rubdown</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:65iXZl2W8M8616GC3jfeeH">Frog Eyes</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:0XSqX2PB3C5dTMv7SZaxSm">Wolf Parade</a>, Swan Lake formed in 2005 around the shared talents of Dan Bejar, <a href="spotify:artist:57ebZKL4lpVlngdaBDuQYG">Spencer Krug</a>, and Carey Mercer. The collaboration was a long time in the making, as all three musicians had previously worked together in some capacity. <a href="spotify:artist:57ebZKL4lpVlngdaBDuQYG">Krug</a>, also of <a href="spotify:artist:0XSqX2PB3C5dTMv7SZaxSm">Wolf Parade</a>, had worked on and off with Mercer's <a href="spotify:artist:65iXZl2W8M8616GC3jfeeH">Frog Eyes</a> for years, and both musicians were former roommates. Meanwhile, Bejar called upon <a href="spotify:artist:65iXZl2W8M8616GC3jfeeH">Frog Eyes</a> to serve as his backing band for <a href="spotify:artist:22ojy4H4ZVpowC4lRRC8In">Destroyer</a>'s 2005 opus, Your Blues. Together, the musicians also recorded new versions of songs from Your Blues entitled Notorious Lightning and Other Works. Before 2005 came to a close, the three friends dismantled their temporary name, the Songwriters Project, and christened themselves Swan Lake. Their self-produced debut album, Beast Moans, arrived in November 2006 via the Jagjaguwar label. Enemy Mine followed in 2009, featuring a more collaborative approach to the bandmates' songwriting. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
