Your contributions needed for tour zine

Sat, 18 Feb 2012 10:22:00 +0000

Morning all, we’re making a -zine for the tour in March and we would like your contribution. It can be an image, story, quiz, essay, lucky charm, dream sequence, whatever your mind-cogs conjure up.

Theme is loosely based on our new album, Ecstatics International. It’s going to be black and white A5 size. No advertising.

Post your enchanted ideas here or send to weareswimming@gmail.com by Wednesday 22nd February. All thoughts will be much appreciated but there is limited space so only a couple will be used on this edition.

Ola dear Swimming pals & palettes

In January 2012 we took a stroll in the sun & have reformed in a new light…

First to emerge was Sam Potter (of Late of The Pier), who has joined us on keyboard & samplers. & has drawn this timely image for us all

He is filling the gap left by our dearly beloved Andy Wright, who is finishing his debut WE SHOW UP ON RADAR album. You can follow him here.. https://twitter.com/#!/WeShowUpOnRadar

Sam’s first show with us will be in Germany as part of our European tour with awesome Scandinavians ‘The Megaphonic Thrift’…

Check our Tour Dates page for the full listing of where we gonna be travelling.

ALSO, our next single from ‘Ecstatics International’ will be ALL THINGS MADE NEW (STAND) with I DO (COME TRUE) available on digital download / limited edition CD from April 23rd 2012.

We’re all super excited about being back out on the road & can’t wait to see all your beau’ faces at all of these shows across all these countries..

LOVE ON

‘Binaural Swimming (Beach)’ the documentary we made with Simon Ellis (bubtowers) Dallas Simpson is premiering at The Directors Lounge in Berlin on 11th February.John is going with Simon to talk about the doc and future plans with the binaural setup.

Here’s Mining For Diamonds, one of the tracks featured on the film. Please listen with headphones, sounds weird otherwise. The guy kneeling in front of us playing is Dallas Simpson, who has tiny mics in his ears so when you listen to it back with headphones - it sounds like you are there.
