Listen: Swim Mountain – ‘Somebody New’

It's a driving piece of psych-pop...

London artist Swim Mountain has shared new single 'Somebody New'.

The songwriter's new EP 'If' is incoming, with the Welsh-born artist expanding his sonic palette.

Real name Tom Skyrme, Swim Mountain's new EP is about “the slow demise of a relationship told across an interchanging timeline of pre and post internet. The conjunction just seemed to fit, life is full of variables that can totally change everything.” 

Released shortly on Tourist's Monday Records, the EP is led by an entrancing psych-pop jammer.

Reminiscent of Tame Impala at their most overtly pop, 'Somebody New' has an ultra-contagious chorus.

A superb distillation of his wonky pop outlook, 'Somebody New' has a gorgeous feel that gently overwhelms.

Tune in now.

Catch Swim Mountain supporting Tourist at London's Village Underground on April 8th and 9th.
