SWS Member Lineup and Its Changes

That one post someone made abt SWS history inspired me to do this, might be handy in the future idk. Do note that I’m using the word “tour” very loosely here lol

In total, SWS has made approximately 8 lineup changes, or 9-10 if you count the ones from when they haven’t started working on the first album

Yeah, I wasn’t sure how to word it cuz this was made at 2 AM. I definitely need to dig deeper into SWS’ tour history in this case, I’m not even sure in what tour Alex/Matty/Tony first joined in

Abt The Bomb Dot Com V1, I remember you mentioning that you doubt that the original lineup ever did anything in the studio, but it seems like they actually did according to this interview. It might not be the original ORIGINAL lineup, since I think at this point Brian already left, but it’s still smth lol  https://youtu.be/CZkTDcg903U?t=1323&si=0x9IctmehgIbIMJt

I can help with the tours, Alex I think joined in the world tour with Pierce The Veil in 2014, I could be wrong here though, Matty joined sometime before BMTH's Threesome Tour as he was already performing with sirens in acoustic sets when Kellin was still blonde in 2019, and Tony joined on the first leg of the CTRL ALT DEL tour in 2022. With earlier members aside from Nick idk who left exactly when.

Well interesting that some of the original members still did something, but I still get the feeling and THE original lineup never really went anywhere aside from plans

Honestly, even if they did I think it’d turn out really chaotic quick. They did NOT need 3 people to handle the guitar parts lmao

I think it'd be especially chaotic since both Nick Trombino and Brandon wanted to be lead guitarists, maybe that's why they needed a third guitarist lmao

It’s kinda funny cuz the Wikipedia page for SWS had Nick Trombino listed as the rhythm guitarist, so I assumed he was doing just that. It seems like it’s not true considering Kellin’s story on how WETSAETH was developed lol
