The mood is playful and the touch is light on songs that sound like they were recorded with all participants sporting an ear-to-ear grin: witness the irresistible"Action Man" (after the jump) where a pair of blissed out back up singers pop up to offer sighing"oohs" and"ahhs" to Huld's breathy vocal charms and a lighthearted banjo twang. The follow up to Dirty Paper Cup, Huld's acclaimed 2006 debut, Swimmers finally bobs ashore to U.S. fans this September (via Radikal) following release in Iceland last fall and the rest of Europe this month.
