Swim deep –

Hum - green & white vinyl

Fresh and inspired from a sold-out tour across Thailand and China, and with an unexpected line-up change, 'Hum' is the work of a group rejuvenated, driven by their innate passion for music - even when the going gets tough - and sounding more confident than ever, whilst juggling the challenges of maintaining a grassroots indie band on their fifth album. Speaking on the track, 'Pieces Of You', lead singer, Austin "Ozzy" Williams adds: "I had found a new writing partner at the full-time bar job: there stood J.J. Buchanan by the barrels of beer kegs we were hauling. A sharp songwriter and a soaring guitarist, who brought something fresh to this song and the whole sonic landscape that would shape 'Hum'. Thematically, 'Hum' continues the life journey of 'There's A Big Star Outside', which captured a transformational period for Williams - preparing for the arrival of his first child, but also the departure of his wife's father. The songs on 'Hum' detail the aftermath of that spell, exploring loss, family and our responsibilities to those we build a life with. "I've now got someone to inspire," he explains. "It's like, 'Yeah, your dad works at a bar to make rent, but this is what he actually does, this is what the dream is, and we'll all live on it together. That's the ethos on this album." With 'Hum', Swim Deep turn struggle into momentum and personal upheaval into collective uplift. It's the band's heaviest, most adventurous, and most uplifting album in years - and the sound of a band still chasing the dream with conviction, but now with something deeper at stake."
