Mitch Webb and the Swindles
Case study
Mitch Webb and the Swindles.
A San Antonio Americana band, six records deep, with website, store, posters, and recording session files held and run by Good Creative Media.
The client.
Mitch Webb and the Swindles is a six-piece San Antonio Americana band led by Mitch Webb. The band has recorded six full-length records, the most recent being Fantastico in 2019. The sound is what the band itself calls “a mixture of country, rock, and conjunto,” and what national reviewers have placed alongside the Sir Douglas Quintet, Freddy Fender, Flaco Jiminez, and Doug Sahm. The band still works regularly: spring 2026 dates include Roughhouse Brewing in San Marcos and ABGB in Austin.
The work.
GCM has handled the band’s digital and physical music infrastructure: the website at mitchwebbandtheswindles.com (home, about, photos, videos, merch, music, shows, contact, mailing list, store), the music store and per-track sales setup (CD, vinyl, and download formats for each record), the band’s logo and poster history (the run of Karshis venue posters is in the project files), and recording-side material including the GarageBand session files for the Fantastico record. The catalog of six records, including digital distribution and the store front end, runs through that infrastructure.
If you are a working musician with a catalog that needs a real home, tell us about your records.
The approach.
A working band needs three things from its digital operation: a place to send a listener that does justice to the actual music, a store that handles CDs, vinyl, and downloads without making the band ask a stranger for help every time a fan wants a record, and a calendar people can find. The band has been doing this for long enough that those things have to keep working across six records and across whichever rooms the band happens to be playing this spring. We built the site that holds all of it, and we have kept it running through years of San Antonio music history, including the venues that have come and gone. The Karshis posters in the project files are a small record of how long the relationship runs.
