Driven by a love of film, the Bath-based five-piece invite listeners to visualise and indulge their imaginations, pairing atmosphere and texture with intimate emotional honesty. Night Swimming’s influences span Cocteau Twins, The Cure, Radiohead and Slowdive, through to contemporary touchpoints like Wolf Alice, Daughter, Just Mustard and Warpaint – artists whose sensory depth and emotional clarity continue to shape the band’s evolving sound. Across five Summer days in August 2025, producer Peter Miles recorded the EP tracks live to tape at Middlefarm Studios in Devon. The surrounding moors provided a haunting backdrop, enveloping the creative process and setting the tone for ‘Melting, Sometimes Bleeding’. “Overflowing instrumentation and dreamy vocals” The Line of Best Fit “Dream pop jewel…fresh and vital” CLASH Magazine “Night Swimming are proving themselves to be dream-pop’s next essential act” DIY Magazine “Stunning…west country-based shoegazers” Notion “…they layer textures that feel suspended — both weightless and heavy with emotion” Hard Of Hearing Magazine “Serene yet expansive sound” Under The Radar Magazine “Evocative dream pop…beautifully bittersweet vocals” God Is In The TV “Melancholic euphoria…burns with an intoxicating, irresistible sonic heat” Atwood Magazine TRACKLISTING Side A Nothing Safe Is Technicolour Submarine Poison Berry Side B Hope and Wavering Dark Clouds
