Swoon
Swoon are a four-piece electronic alt-rock band hailing from Brighton, UK, who create leftfield pop songs. Songs with teeth.
Originally a bedroom project, Swoon began when Alice and Adam met via a Gumtree Ad and immediately started writing and recording. They were soon joined by Chris and Ferg on bass and drums respectively, completing the line-up in late 2017.
The band's influences come from quite disparate places: Alice's native Italy, mass book-consumption, an intense worship of David Bowie and the guilty-pleasure listening of horrendous heavy metal. All of which are tossed into the Swoon melting pot; and from this emerges their 'anything goes' alt-pop music.

'Fun Police' is the blistering debut release from Brighton alt-pop band Swoon.
"Take and never give; I guess that's the way you live".
'Fun Police' is about freeing yourself from the shackles of an oppressive environment or relationship. In this case, it's both. Written after the demise of one of the band's previous groups, 'Fun Police' is about getting things off your chest and starting afresh from a more positive place.
