Edinburgh-based indie rock/alt/indie pop band Swim School have announced the release of their highly-anticipated self-titled debut album.
To mark the announcement they have also shared their catchy new single “Alone With You“. The record, produced by Iain Berryman (Wolf Alice, Beebadoobee, Sam Fender) will be out on October 3 via LAB Records. Pre-order your copy here.
UPDATE 7/21/2025: “Alone With You” is out new Single of the Week!
Drummer Billy McMahon said of the new single:
“We thought this was the perfect song to release to send a clear signal about the direction in which we’re travelling and it really feels like the band we’re supposed to be which is why we decided to call the album swim school….because it really is, for the first time….us”.
Lead singer and guitarist Alice Johnson added:
“‘Alone With You’ was recorded during our second big album session with Iain Berryman and we recorded it almost without thinking, like everything coming together in perfect moment between us which is cool because it’s really a song about the safety of being in that company that allows you to truly be at peace.“
