V11 x Rotown presents: Swim School

Few bands hit the gas as hard as swim school. At times, dirty, thunderous riffs crash down like storm clouds through their dynamic alt-rock; moments later, you’re swept away by a dark yet beautiful wave of explosive indie rock. Eclectic at their core, the band remains fiercely loyal to their signature sound: simmering, immersive, and pulsing with fiery drums and an undercurrent of tension. So far, swim school has released four EPs, the most recent being Seeing It Now (late 2024). But it’s the uncompromising energy and mature edge of their single Alone With You—the second track from their long-awaited, self-titled debut album, out October 3, 2025—that makes one thing clear: they’re ready for a bold, next-level breakthrough.
