Loner (Aus)

Following a meteoric rise over the past couple of years, 2025 will see Barry Can’t Swim cement his place at the upper echelons of dance music with the release of his sophomore album Loner. The album title sums up the philosophy with which Barry went into the album-making process. Despite his gregarious presence on and off the stage, Barry himself has always been an incredibly thoughtful and introverted person. It’s only now, after the last several years of pushing himself, that he’s been able to embrace this side of his personality and present it to the world. Anticipation could not be higher for this album, Barry is not only the biggest breakthrough artist in electronic music over the past two years, he’s one of the most in-demand artists across all genres on the planet right now. Throughout 2024, Barry has been playing to record breaking audiences, selling hundreds of thousands of tickets and picking up media acclaim across continents. In support of the album release, Barry will be playing his biggest ever shows in North America and Europe and headlining festivals in the UK and Australia. All of his singles to date have yielded incredible support across radio and press, not to mention clocking up millions of streams. He has been named number three in the BBC Sound of 2025 list as well as one of Spotify's Artists To Watch 2025. Previous album When Will We Land? was nominated for the Mercury Prize 2024 and named as an album of the year by Billboard as well as many others.
