Toronto, Canada’s indie/folk rock group, The Wooden Sky, have just debuted the lead single and title track from their newly-announced album, Swimming in Strange Waters. The band’s fifth full-length is due out via Nevado Records on April 7th and takes its title from a line in Frank Herbert’s 1965 sci-fi novel, Dune, which reads, “Survival is the ability to swim in strange water.”
“It’s how I filter a lot of things that come in,” said frontman and multi-instrumentalist Gavin Gardiner of his songwriting process. “For better or for worse, it’s how I deal with things and how I communicate my feelings.” Swimming in Strange Waters is Gardiner trying to make sense of the world.
