SWIM DEEP have broken cover to share a new single called ‘Little Blue’.

The band have taken many twists and turns through their 10-year career and this track marks another – sitting somewhere between the 1975 and the euphoric electronic of Caribou. Written a time when Austin Williams was ditching fears and perceptions about how the band’s music would be perceived, there’s a definite sense of optimism and quiet self-belief in its soaring choruses.

The singer says There’s a couple of themes running through ‘Little Blue’. The lyrics came out as I was writing the melody and I just kept them in. When I look back at it and what I was feeling at the time, it was most probably about me and my fiancé, with a more general moniker for myself and the band too. “Here now we’re going to make it” – is a reassurance that I’ve always needed. I’d like to think sometimes I don’t need it, but now more than ever I do.”

“I’m 30 now, so that youthful foolish hopefulness is slowly being replaced by a crappy realism, but I still think we’re going to headline Madison Square Garden one day so that self belief hasn’t totally abandoned me just yet. And when we do, I’ll be singing this song.”

Tune in now.
