Album artwork for Swimming / The Open Road by Kero Kero Bonito

On the heels of their critically acclaimed sophomore full-length Time 'n' Place, Kero Kero Bonito returns with a new 7" featuring album highlight Swimming and a brand new B-side titled The Open Road, which the band says “is a song about our North America tour last year, including anecdotes about the time a lorry nearly jackknifed into us in a blizzard ‘(We came to a halt in the snow / Swerving on the wet slush below / Just as well we did 'cos / That lorry in front of us / Was gonna tip over)’ and getting robbed in San Francisco ‘(Way out on the north golden coast / Just as we were ready to go / Bandits broke into the van / And took all we had).’”
