PRESS QUOTES:
“Swimming foregrounds his graceful guitar playing, his quietly intense vocals, and most of all his observant songwriting, all of which reveal new wisdom with each spin.” – SPIN
“Sublime… the results are so intimate and tactile that you might just feel them slip through your fingers.” – Bandcamp
“Ten songs to be discovered, savored, and rediscovered” – Pop Matters
“Each song breathes marvelously, matching the searching, restless nature of Moss’s lyrics perfectly.” – Aquarium Drunkard
“To listen to Swimming, the new album by Sam Moss, is to be confronted by beautiful contradictions. Moss and his ensemble spin a gossamer web of instrumentation around Moss’ earthy voice, at once hopeful and a deliverer of weary wisdom.” –No Depression
