PREMIERE

SWOON BUBBLE

Of all the cities in the UK, Brighton has never been one to follow the crowd. From its proudly liberal political leanings to its enviable nightlife and thriving gay scene, you can see why the city welcomes droves of new residents every year. Celebrating exactly this, is the new single from self-described Socio-political electro-punks Swoon. 'Bubble' is a powerful onslaught of well-produced pop with a self-aware edge that cuts like a knife. Explaining their motivations behind the track, the band explained: "'Bubble'” is about the city of Brighton; the carefree, anything goes attitude. No prejudice. No bigotry. Sometimes it feels like there are only little pockets of society who have this attitude, so we thought we'd write a song highlighting how fantastic and unique we believe Brighton to be. Our little bubble. Last year we toured with Pussy Riot, who really opened our eyes to how difficult the world can be for some. In the UK, we're privileged and we wanted to celebrate what we have."
