by Caroline No

 

Caroline No is a project built around the songs of artist Caroline Kennedy (guitar and vocals) known for her work as the vocalist and songwriter of seminal underground 90s group The Plums and 90s/2000s era pop heroes Deadstar. The current line up of Caroline No is Caroline Kennedy, Mick Turner (Dirty Three) and Ian Wadley (Mad Nanna).

 

Swimmers is the second LP from the group, an alternative dream-pop album that fuses Neo-psychedelia and hazy folk-rock. Produced by Mick Turner (Dirty Three), the record is rich in its instrumental compositions and emotional complexity, making it a timeless masterpiece.

Described as a collection of songs “conjuring a desired person”, each song is an ode to romantic longing and the power of manifestations when you yearn for the perfect lover.

Check out the first track off the album, Alex, below.
