Hear Swords’ solemn moving new single ‘The Letter’
Swords have followed up their excellent last single ‘Betty Machete’ from forthcoming album Tidal Waves (October 28th) with ‘The Letter’.
The new song from Diane Anglim (vocals & piano), Jarlath Canning (bass, guitars & synth) and Ian Frawley (drums), is a solemn lullaby-style song about one-way dialogue about not being able to erase past actions and letting things be.
Tidal Waves was produced by producer Karl Odlum (The Frames, Gemma Hayes, Mic Christopher, Ham Sandwich), and Mastered by Grammy winning engineer Mandy Parnell (Feist, Bjork, The xx, Sigur Ros, Tame Impala).
The album will be launched at at The Workmans Club, Dublin on November 11th 2016. Tickets for the show are €12.50
The Letter is available digitally on:
