The sophomore album from Linying, Swim, Swim emerged from a disorienting but dreamlike period partly spent living on the remote Filipino island of Siargao: a teardrop-shaped enclave known for its coral reefs and underwater caves and fantastically untamed landscape, where the Singapore-born singer/songwriter embarked on what she refers to as a “parallel discovery of self and femininity.” After first traveling to Siargao to work with a Filipina movie star seeking to break into music, the globally beloved artist returned to the island four more times over the course of a chaotic year marked by personal heartbreak and the immense upheaval of moving to Los Angeles from her homeland. As she spent countless days in solitude, writing and exploring and playing in the ocean, Linying slowly began piecing together the songs of Swim, Swim: a soul-baring yet exuberant album about meeting life’s uncertainties with courage, curiosity, and relentless imagination.
