neu waves presents #151 with Nagasaki Swim on their UK tour 2026, with support from Starter Car and Paul A. Buchanan

// Nagasaki Swim //

Nagasaki Swim writes music that gives you courage, even if you're just walking to the supermarket or merging onto the highway again after a long time. With firm roots in Rotterdam and three albums under their belt through Amsterdam's iconic Excelsior Recordings label, the band around songwriter/producer Jasper Boogaard grows in many directions. Sometimes a warmhearted folk act, other times a euphoric, fearless rock band, Nagasaki Swim resolutely loosens the reins - through the forest with open eyes, out into the world.

// Starter Car //

Four piece, Starter Car, came out of the blocks fast, being recruited by songwriter Oisean who moved to London from Scotland for the city's music scene. With their unique brand of country-influenced indie, the band quickly found themselves headlining cornerstone London venues such as The Windmill Brixton, Shacklewell Arms and The George Tavern
