LA based psych-pop duo, SWIMM, have released their new single, “Speak Politely.”
“Speak Politely” is the second single from their highly-anticipated debut full-length, Sentimental Porno, and comes just ahead of the band’s quick trip to New York this week to play Three’s Brewery in Brooklyn on Friday night (7/21) and Mercury Lounge in Manhattan on Saturday (7/22).
“First Time”, the band’s most recent release and first single from Sentimental Porno, was featured on Spotify’s “New Indie Music” playlist and was hailed as a “bold new direction from the band as they begin to unlock more mature soundscapes” by Paste Magazine and “an intoxicant spiked with oozing keyboards, electronic percussion, and Hess’ pillow-talk falsetto” by Buzzbands LA.
Hailing from the Space Coast region of Florida, Chris Hess (vocals and guitar) and Adam Winn (percussion and harmonica) released their first EP–Feel— in 2013. The following year, the two moved to Los Angeles in one of the most important moves of their life and began work on what would become their 2015 release, the Beverly Hells EP on 24West Records.
Beverly Hells would go on to be named on of Buzzband LA’s EP’s of the year and received coverage everywhere from Noisey to Consequence of Sound and Nylon, firmly establishing the band amongst a much larger audience.
