He has worked as a songwriter since the 1980s, penning commercial jingles and pop hits for artists including Al Green, Rufus Wainwright, Olivia Newton-John, and Michael Bolton.

In recent years, Swirsky formed a power pop duo, The Red Button, with Mike Ruekberg. They have released two albums together, and Swirsky has put out three solo records: Instant Pleasure (2004), Watercolor Day (2010), and Circles and Squares (2016).
