Swimming Tapes reveal breezy new cut "Passing Ships"
London five-piece Swimming Tapes have revealed breezy new cut "Passing Ships", taken from their upcoming debut album Morningside.
"Passing Ships" is the second single from Morningside, after February's "Pyrenees".
The new video, directed by Marc Corrigan, features documentary footage of the Third Avenue El Train in New York, which went out of service in 1955. Of the visuals, Corrigan explains, "juxtaposing urban clips with rural, and mixing past with present, touches on themes of nostalgia, memories, a parallel life, or what might have been."
Morningside was recorded at a London studio in Haggerston, and saw the five-piece recruit frequent collaborator Paddy Baird for production and engineering of the record. After recording their debut album was mixed by Tom Schick (Real Estate, Iron & Wine) at Wilco’s Chicago studio The Loft.
