Midnight Swim’s five singers and accompanying guitarist have performed together in various musical groups throughout their lives. They formed a group in Nelson in March 2021 to sing songs they love in a folky style, with close harmonies and plenty of emotion.
Inspired by artists like Fleetwood Mac, Leonard Cohen, Adele, and Imogen Heap, Midnight Swim love teasing the essence out of an original piece and weaving it through with new harmony and texture. Since forming, they’ve performed at Acoustic Routes events, fundraisers, the Cable Play festival, and open mics across Nelson.
This Live Lounge will feature traditional folk tunes, beloved songs from the 70s and 80s, some modern hits and even an original piece or two.
Lydia Stallard, Rachel Pemberton, Emily Wragg, Susy Peddie, Evie Rainey and Dunstan Blay are excited to perform this uplifting, emotive and playful music at their first Live Lounge!
