Nagasaki Swim makes music that fills you with courage, whether you’re just walking to the supermarket or merging onto the highway after a long time away. Sometimes they’re a warm-hearted folk band, other times an euphoric, fearless rock outfit. One thing’s for sure: creativity is never in short supply. This indie-folk group isn’t afraid to let instruments like strings or lap steel take the spotlight alongside the more conventional ones. Nagasaki Swim confidently loosens the reins—eyes wide open, embracing everything that comes their way.
Firmly rooted in Rotterdam and with two albums under their belt, the band, led by Jasper Boogaard, is growing in many directions. Their sharp debut The Mirror (2021) and the lush follow-up Everything Grows (2023) have taken Nagasaki Swim on multiple tours throughout the Netherlands and the UK, with performances at festivals like SXSW, Best Kept Secret, and Motel Mozaïque. And now, as the grey autumn weather sets in, a new Nagasaki Swim album is blooming—we can’t wait for it to see the light of day!
