Los Angeles-based Brother Swan is an indie rock outfit formed by vocalist and guitarist Chris Matthews, percussionist Chris Weisson and Ian Stahl on bass and additional guitars. Together they combine to create their own melodic style of modern indie music that takes inspiration from a wide array of artists such as My Bloody Valentine, LCD Soundsystem, Elliott Smith, Alex G and David Bowie.
Laying down a stunning sound of woozy guitar textures, bright splashy drums and smoky harmonic vocal lines, Brother Swan capture a familiar style while still offering their own distinct sonic fabric. After bursting onto the scene earlier this year with their debut single “Good Luck Baby”, they’ve dropped a handful of stellar tracks in the build up to their debut record Loom.
Now having just released their first album, they’ve unleashed the full scope of their gripping alternative sound. Squaring off upbeat soundscapes with reflective and meaningful lyricism, across Loom, Brother Swan lays out their artistic intent on a release that both charms and challenges.
Spinning a nostalgic tone, with their debut LP the band pays respectful nods to their influences from yesteryear while tying together their own modern sonic aesthetic. Full of truly memorable moments of melodic grace, balanced by the perfectly raw instrumental framework, Loom sees Brother Swan share a worthy debut record as they continue to stride from strength-to-strength.
