Exclusive Premiere: Hear GROVES' Summery New Single 'Swim'
It's impossible to believe Los Angeles indie rock band GROVES would exist in the same way outside of their home on the California coast—this is sweet, self-reflexive, beach-ready music. It seems all but coincidental that the synth that drives the track we're premiering today, "Swim," sounds watery. The repetitive chorus crashes like ocean waves: "I just want to swim / I can't tell you why."
The band is currently signed to MDDN, the very company started by Benji and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte fame. While they're definitely not a pop-punk band by definition, the hooks here are pretty undeniable.
