Night Swimming – ‘Five-Year Plan’

Posted on the 07 August 2024 by Spectralnights

Bath/Bristol-based dreampoppers Night Swimming have shared ‘Five-Year Plan’ (please note the correct use of a hyphen) ahead of the release of their debut EP ‘No Place to Land’ on 27 September.

Produced by Peter Miles (Torres, Orla Gartland), the song was recorded live to tape and is a sublimely serene and special listen. While the guitar swirls around in shoegaze style and everything else is suitably charming and powerful – especially those electronic string arrangements, vocalist Meg Jones reflects on the unexpected breakdown of a relationship with the kind of rawness you expect from London Grammar’s Hannah Reid.
