SWiiMS brings fresh air with their latest single and video release “Given To Me,” taken from their debut LP “Into The Blue Night.” This song explores all aspects of beginnings anew, masterfully depicting how difficult it can be to open yourself up to new beginnings with someone new and eventually giving in and relinquishing your reluctance over time.
SWiiMS’ signature sound begins with the unmistakable hum of electric guitar lines, leading into an infectious driving drum rhythm that quickly joins in on the musical adventure. SWiiMS excels at crafting immersive experiences such as “Given To Me”. This track opens up with laidback, airy vocals creating an ethereal ambience – setting the stage for emotional discovery ahead.
The band quickly emerged as indie darlings during the turbulent early days of Covid pandemic. Led by guitarist Colin Thompson and singer/guitarist Mai Diaz Langou – and later bassist Cian O’Ruanaidh who provided melodic hooks and driving energy into their music.
“Given To Me” perfectly blends genres of Brit Rock, New Wave, Dream Pop, and Shoegaze, creating their signature sound. As a track from their debut LP “Into The Blue Night,” “Given To Me” allures to relationships that defy logic – with an intoxicating blend of hopefulness, bliss, and loss of control that comes with starting something new.
SWiiMS crafts experiences through music, and “Given To Me” is no exception. Listeners are drawn into exploring the depths of emotions and the magnetic pull of new beginnings as each note becomes an exciting step into unknown territories and each beat resonates with a journey’s excitement. Immerse yourself in their mesmerising soundscape – where each note represents another step into unknown territories while every beat pulses with life.
