The Daycare Swindlers were a 5-piece punk band from the Washington, DC area that was formed in 1997. All of the members of the band are songwriters, and their music covers an eclectic range of styles that reflects their own personal tastes. Rooted firmly in a classic DC hardcore background, their music has also touched on ska, rockabilly, street-punk, and surf. They broke up in July 2004 in order to focus more on their normal lives. Their last concert was also the CD Release show for their final album, "The Morning After". This album also includes their first & only music video ever, for the song "Darkness". The members have gone on to be in several different new bands, including Rude Rock Family and Supreme Commander.
