N-Pursuit

Born in Jamaica and raised in Tennessee, Eddie Swanson (a.k.a. N-Pursuit) has always had a passion for music. He grew up singing in church and was given the opportunity to sing with the gospel group, The Mighty Gospel Kings, as they performed in Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi. Swanson also earned top slots in multiple talent competitions. However, his dreams of becoming a singer were sidelined by vocal cord surgery as a teenager and being told that he would never be able to sing on a professional level.

He chose to stay close to the music business by working security for several touring bands. When family and life necessities demanded a more stable income and less travel, music stayed close to his heart as Swanson continued to write songs that he feared he would never sing. Amidst frustrating and unsuccessful attempts at finding singers for his songs, Swanson's mom repeatedly said, "Maybe God intended for you to sing your own songs" and kept praising his singing abilities up until her death.

Recently, with the encouragement of his girlfriend and due to his continued love and passion for music, Swanson decided to return to that long-ago dream and starting recording his own songs. The songs of N-Pursuit are a mix of pop, rock, and R & B reflecting the inspiration gleaned from Lionel Richie, Bon Jovi, and Barry Manilow. In a smooth style similar to theirs that all listeners can emotionally connect with, Swanson writes passionate lyrics about the many aspects of life and love. Swanson's soothing, fresh, and distinctive voice takes listeners on musical journeys, such as through the lives of two conflicted lovers deciding whether to take the next step, a family's emotional separation during times of war, and neighbors choosing to act in love rather than fueling the hate.

Swanson's ultimate goal is to have his "music with a message" out where the public can enjoy it and at the top of the charts, whether sung by N-Pursuit or another talented artist.
