Daylight in the Swamp is a contemporary bluegrass band based out of Madison, Wisconsin, and is a relatively new band to hit the area music scene, having formed less than two years ago. The band\'s mission is to preserve the hard-driving traditional bluegrass sound, while including some material from other musical styles. Their work can best be described as \"Music with a Bluegrass Accent.\"

Ben Wright, banjo player for nationally recognized bluegrass band The Henhouse Prowlers, had this to say about Daylight in the Swamp: \"We had a great time playing with these guys in Madison!-This band-has tight arrangements, solid harmonies and that guitar player\'s voice is like butter!-
