Swiss Portrait – “Worries”

May 22, 2024

From the Lowlands of Scotland, Swiss Portrait brings us their latest with “Worries.” Songwriting, recording, and producing is all done by Michael – the brains behind the operation and, obviously, indie as fuck. The track itself is a subdued, guitar-forward song that has that delectable warm tone/vibe (you’ll know it when you hear it) that you can’t help but like. The composition is impeccable, as you can tell every single bit of the sound has been painstakingly laid down to near perfection – but the musical kind (not robotic). Fans of Real Estate or Alvvays’ sound would find a lot to enjoy here; similar vibes but 100% more Scottish than either band. You can hear “Worries” over on Spotify or down below from YouTube. If you like what you’ve heard you can check out the album when it releases later this year. I give artists a follow on their socials[...]

Swiss Portrait – “Today”

December 7, 2021

There’s a jangly sort of itchiness to the music that comprises the new Swiss Portrait single… It’s also the perfect accompaniment to the song’s lyrical content. “Today” is about the guilt that you face when you ignore your to-do list – whether its your dog giving you puppy eyes or your friends simply telling you off, those harsh feelings of guilt still sting the same. They’re brought to life here with dense layers of reverb, surfy-shoegaze guitar textures, and an otherworldly vocal presence. “Today” is available for your listening pleasure below (YouTube), but you can also find it on Apple Music and Spotify.

Swiss Portrait – “Find My Way”

October 15, 2020

Swiss Portrait here with a frantic and swimmy dream-pop song called “Find My Way.” We can’t help but love the simplicity of the lush, chorus-laden guitar riffs here – it’s also tied together with an urgent drum beat that sounds as neurotic as it does applicable. Swiss Portrait’s omni-pleasant vocals are another highlight here, bolstered visually by the serenity of the song’s mid-woods music video treatment. Enjoy the vid below, and if you enjoy this one as much as we do, add it to Spotify.
