A polished indie act.
This is the band to follow, because swim school aren’t waiting for an invitation to become your new favourite band – they’re coming to take it.

Recorded over the early months of 2025 with producer Iain Berryman (Wolf Alice, Beebadoobee, Sam Fender, Pale Waves) it perfectly captures a band who are unshakably certain that this version of themselves is the real version of swim school - comfortable in their own skin but also ready to shed it.
