Great Lake Swimmers have a nice, pastoral folky sound and wonderful vocal harmonies. Their sound is like slowcore meets indie folk, and the mix is just pure gold.
The band pulls their sound together beautifully, live. The dreamy, sad quality of their music gives their live sound an ethereal, distant haunting sound. It is loud, cinematic, sad, and beautifully written.
The vocals match the music's aesthetic, but also provide a poppy edge. The female harmonies sound emotional, and the band utilizes midwestern emo style guitar chords and rhythms for a passionately loud effect. I was just continually blown away by the band's sound. They seemed to have a true passion for the music that they were making, and it really heightened and sharpened their sound. The guitar sounded like it was an alternate tool for the musician to express their emotions.
I just loved every second of their dream pop sound. It was fresh, and clean, and the melodies really gave their tone an advantage. The melodies perfectly complement the musical aesthetic, and the distant, dreamy sound of the Great Lake Swimmers was a new favorite of mine. The audience happily swayed for the rest of the set, and happily cheered when it was over. I was really impressed by these guys.
