Download Douglas Dare – Swim
Douglas is a London-based singer-songwriter, originally from the lovely coastal town of Bridport. And being the son of a piano teacher, you can see why his instrument of choice is the ivory percussion’d one. He’s still only 23 – which may just completely anger some – and started composition from an even younger age as well as studying popular music at Liverpool. His debut album Whelm is out 12th May and is certainly worth your time and pocket money / disposable income. Certainly one to keep an eye on with this level of song writing, you simply shouldn’t be this good and not get noticed.
