Album review
Rachel Sermanni has announced a new EP titled Every Swimming Pool Runs to the Sea. The follow-up to 2021’s Swallow Me EP will be out on June 16. Today, the Scottish singer-songwriter has previewed it with the single ‘Aquarium Kisses’, which you can hear below.
“I woke from a dream where an old school friend had led me into a huge aquarium,” Sermanni recalled in a statement about the new song. “More like a building with glass, water, and tropical fish for walls. In the glow, we kissed. It was a lovely, playful, sensual dream. This is where the song begins. As is obvious. Each verse that follows is an ode to a past lover. The reasons I loved them, little moments and memories. It has a nostalgic feeling for me which then comes to the present moment with the chorus words (written by Richard Walters) where I hold the hand of my now love. I believe that the chorus and the presence of another’s hand in mine is more symbolic.”
