Los Angeles alt-rock artist Forest announces her debut album, Swan Dive, out  25 September via AWAL. Alongside the news, she shares new single ‘Anchor’ – the soundtrack to our Friday.

‘Anchor’ is powered by emo-glazed drums, gritty guitar and urgent vocals, carrying the weight of memory and the past. Forest shares:

“‘Anchor’ delves into the idea of becoming wrapped up in something you can’t get out of. It was written in my childhood bedroom on a trip to Chicago, at a time when I had felt the past wrap its arms around me. The thought of being stuck and tied to the past was the driving thought throughout this track.”
