“Swim At Night” refuses to be constrained by genre, lifting influence from far and wide as it rolls into motion. Vocally, LOUIZAinvites comparisons to Joni Mitchell, whilst her songwriting invokes A Creature I Don’t Know-era Laura Marling. There’s something endlessly classic about the track’s easygoing sound: simple twirls of electric guitar flickering above a deliberate, no-frills drum line. Multi-tracking her own vocals into a tightly choreographed backing choir ensures Mimiaga’s voice is centred throughout, whether arching through the crystal-clear lyric or stretching out into beautiful, wordless sound.
