Swimmer

Tennis

1970s-inspired sophisti-pop. Lush analog synths and breathy vocals create a warm, protective cocoon around themes of grief and devotion.

It's like a 70s soft-rock dream that stays with you long after the record stops spinning.

A protective, warm embrace that acknowledges deep sadness while celebrating enduring love.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden shift from the driving, urgent verse to the soaring, melodic release of the chorus in Need Your Love
The way the synth pad swells and recedes like a physical tide during the bridge of Swimmer
The intimate, dry vocal delivery on Matrimony II that feels like a secret whispered directly into your ear
