Delano Milano is Nick Jong’s revolving carousel of a band based in San Francisco, frantically grasping at several genres all in the effort of making danceable music with pure drinkable hooks and distinct edible vibes.

Swami 3 is the brother band turning childhood jam sessions into a real-time rise. Shaan, Noah, and Rohan each fell in love with music at five years old, and a first show in Singapore lit the fuse. From early gigs for handfuls of friends to electrifying performances at the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair, Golden Gate Bandshell, Music City SF, and Chase Center, they’re building a reputation on pure live energy and a true dialogue with the audience: exciting, communal, unforgettable. Their sound blends hook-heavy pop with the heart of rock ’n’ roll—big melodies and storytelling that feels both timeless and new. Think modern brother-band spark (AJR, Jonas Brothers) raised on legends (Queen, The Beatles): playful yet powerful; soulful yet soaring. At the center are themes of growing up, resilience, and hope. New singles “Rise Up” and “Hero” carry that message forward, capturing the innocence of childhood, the challenge of coming of age, and the belief that music can inspire change. Released in September 2025, “Rise Up” has surpassed 1.5 million YouTube views, while “Hero,” released in late October 2025, has already garnered over 2.1 million views. In November 2025, at its annual event, ConnectedSF honored Swami 3 with a Hero Award for the song’s uplifting message and focus on community recognition. With over 1 million YouTube subscribers and more than 271 million total views, recognition from the San Francisco Chronicle, and music rooted in themes that resonate across generations, Swami 3 is not just a buzz but is shaping a movement anchored in family, honesty, and purpose-driven anthems. To Swami 3, music is a service: inspiring, connecting, and echoing back the strength of every listener’s story.
