Watch Swim Deep's new video for "To My Brother"

12 March 2015, 10:42 | Written by Laurence Day

Indie-pop group Swim Deep have shared their new video for recent comeback single "To My Brother".

Lead vocalist Austin Williams has spoken about their inspiration for the track:

"There's been inspiration from the sound and ethics of the acid house movement of the late eighties. It feels like there are a lot of parallels with what we have today, that sort of determination to dance whilst everything falls apart around you. We're not being revivalists though, for us every summer could be the summer of love. This track comes from pure obsession with Motown hits, a 303 machine we dusted off in the studio and a heroic breakbeat whilst lyrically it's reflecting a war with my own words, a sort of frustrated parody. Preaching to myself."

"To My Brother" is out now on Chess Club/RCA.
