Night Swimming sign to Venn Records and share new single, "Submarine"
Bath dream-pop band Night Swimming have announced their signing to Venn Records alongside the release of new single, "Submarine".
Speaking on the release of new single 'Submarine', lyricist Meg Jones said: "‘Submarine’ is about loss - the song likens it to feeling as though you’re submerged at the bottom of the ocean, unable to focus fully on what is happening around you. It grapples with the shock of feeling as though your world has fallen out from under you, and finding metaphorical shards from the wreckage which trigger surges of grief (when life seemed to have more meaning). It reflects on how you feel as though you are constantly living somewhere between reality and this underwater realm, and the waves of emotion are always waiting for you when you least expect them. It also comments on how people who have experienced loss will often notice it in others."
The new single is accompanied by a video directed by Matthew Deeley, and arrives ahead of a UK headline tour this month, before the band join Miki Berenyi of pioneering UK shoegazers Lush on select dates this winter.
"Submarine" is out now via Venn Records. Tickets for Night Swimming's headline tour dates are on sale here.
