Swooner is a Chicago-based project that brings together the talents of indie pop artist Port Streets—praised for their "blissfully constructed indie rock" by A&R Factory—and house music producer J Ben. This unique collaboration combines the best of both worlds: the lush melodies and introspective lyricism of indie pop with the driving, rhythmic pulse of house.
Their debut EP, Resolved, marks a significant step forward for the duo following the release of their 2023 single, "Please Let Me Explain," which garnered attention for its "heady shoe-gaze-friendly glow," according to Obscure Sound. With this release, Swooner cements their place as an exciting fusion of genre influences, delivering an EP that promises both emotional depth and dancefloor appeal.
