Bill actually is great not just for his writing for Swan Dive,but for his 
many co-written songs.One of his partners is none other than Boo.For 
example,"Mountains" on the excellent latest Boo cd "Harmonograph".He also 
writes a lot with Jill Sobule , Gary Clark[Danny Wilson], and Marshall 
Crenshaw.I am a huge fan of Swan Dive.Bills writing and Molly's singing 
totally connect  with me.
I love Darden as well.
