Soft Swells
Soft Swells is the new bi-coastal collaboration of newly relocated LA transplant Tim Williams and NYC's Matt Welsh, formerly of the Wilco-approved alt-country band Phonograph. Named for and inspired by Williams' beachy new surroundings, the band is an extension of his gifted songwriting, which he previously showcased on his three well-received albums on Dovecote Records. Soft Swells are the inaugural signing of Modern Outsider Records, the label of husband and wife team of industry vets Chip and Erin Adams.
The band's debut single "Every Little Thing" was released digitally in February and has been receiving regular airplay across the country, most notably on KCRW and KROQ's "Rodney on the Roq." The track is replete with Williams’ canny pop songwriting and features full use of his band’s arsenal: reverby guitar, subtle electronics, stuttering and snapping drums, handclaps and a ringing xylophone. Williams and Welsh completed recording their debut LP with Dave Lynch at his Bat Box Studio in London this summer. A seven-inch vinyl single featuring "Every Little Thing" and "Lifeboats" will be released on August 2 via Modern Outsider.
