PORTS – Swimming Pool
And we all float on…
There’s something in the water for Derry indie shoegaze-friendly quartet PORTS.
The band are Steven McCool (Bass and Vocals), Mark O’Doherty (Drums), Ryan Griffiths (Guitar) and Conor Mason (Piano).
Steven says:
“We were using a new lyric writing technique, where we would imagine a scene. So I said I can see someone diving into a swimming pool at night in slow motion.
“The song ultimately became a metaphor for our emotions; if you fight them they become harder to manoeuvre. So, like swimming, you just go with it and it gets easier the more relaxed you are”.
The new album – the follow-up to 2016’s The Devil Is A Songbird – is due later this year.
Nick says: Swim when you’re winning.
