Helena Deland Shares New Single, Swimmer

When I think back on Helena Deland‘s Someone New, I always seem to regard it with some sort of elvish dreaminess; it always seemed like she was some magnificent forest creature sent to serenade. Now, as she prepares for tours with The Weather Station and Andy Schauf, she seems to be channeling a more traditional brand of folk, albeit one that still has this sort of forestry imagery in my brain. You’ll definitely find the track striking, with Deland’s voice sparkling crisply, with Winter winds blowing in behind in the mix (or so it seems). The video is all footage shot by Helena, with the guitar notes seemingly escorting you through each image upon their backs. Enjoy this one.
