TICKETS ON SEE & Ticketmaster Wednesday 7th June @ 10am
Multi-faceted Scottish artist Barry Can’t Swim's debut album ‘When Will We Land?’ arrives on Ninja Tune, out October 20th. His broadest and most diverse project yet, the 11-track project moves from deep house to jazz, from ambience to the percussive charge of afrobeat. It’s all held together by his singular sense of purpose and that trademark vivacity; deftly finessed, it’s an album that works as a form of musical autobiography.
The incoming debut album is led by new single ‘Woman’, a fantastic blend of digital production and organic musicianship. A warm bed of notes pirouettes around an emphatic vocal from Låpsley, resulting in a song that moves between the cavernous house of Moodymann, say, and the neo-psychedelic tones of shoegaze.
‘Woman’ follows the emphatic success of recent single ‘Sunsleeper’, which landed in the opening weeks of 2023. It embraces the energy of club music while also blending this with organic elements. “For me, I want it to have musicality to it,” he says of his debut album. “I wanted it to have the energy of electronic music but also with a more organic live element. I’m a producer but I like writing music on instruments.”
The Edinburgh-born musician caught attention with a series of releases in 2020, before signing to Ninja Tune imprint Technicolour for his sensational 2022 EP ‘More Content’. Billboard named him as one of their 10 Dance Artists To Watch, while single ‘Blackpool Boulevard’ was Radio 1 playlisted – veteran broadcaster Pete Tong loved it, while influential voices such as The Blessed Madonna and Annie Mac are huge fans
