Swimming Pool Lies
Jack Adaptor formed in London in 2002 from the remnants of the well-respected outfit Family Cat, and centre around the creative force of the two main protagonists, Paul Frederick and Christopher Cordoba. They like to write songs full of romance and disillusionment, detailing the everyday way people can rub against each other.
Their 4th album “Swimming Pool Lies” has songs that make despair and anxiety sound poignant yet comical, sincere yet ironic, familiar yet unique, set against the back drop of California or imagined California and everything that could bring to a pair of isolated songwriters conditioned to the harshness of London life.
