swelt

Weaving tapestries of sparse, melancholy compositions, swelt meld influences of folk, Americana and post-rock. The four-piece, composed of members of Talons and Iceman Furniss Quartet, formed in Bristol in 2020 and spent the next two years writing and playing intimate shows around the city.

Delicate melody and vulnerability form the core of the band’s atmospheric arrangements, using voices and strings to create open harmony.

swelt’s debut release, ‘Red Mountain EP’ was released by Candlepin Records on the 28th October 2022.
