Artist/Band: CALMING RIVER Single Track “Boats”
Single release date: Dec 4th, 2020 From the upcoming album Dead Bluebottles Supine, due early 2021.
Location: United Kingdom, London
Calming River released its first single from the album Dead Bluebottles Supine.
The album release is set for early 2021. The debut track “Boats” is alternative-folk at its best. Joshua Malcolm is the gifted artist behind the music. “Boats” showcases the familiar enigmatic songwriting style of Calming River. You take a journey into the “deeper ravines” of human emotions. The track is a dark depiction of the unsafe ground we all feel when surrounded by an unending stream of failure.
The mood of uncertainty and bewilderment are well displayed by Windsor-based (UK) videographer/director Matthew Fleming.
Malcolm’s past releases have received accolades. Many media groups in the Nordic Region follow him. The artist lived there until his move to London in 2018.

Artist reviews:
“This is an artist we have not given enough attention to over the last 3 years…’ Calming River’ is a songwriter that you just need to find that quiet 10 minutes to consider and enjoy.” – Nordic Music Review
” Captivating and possessing significant emotional heft.” – Overblown
”A dissonance reverberates throughout like a calm river–tranquil, but with an opposing dormant force that rests with a somnolent fever.” – Oh Es Tee
”Indeed calming and indubitably enchanting.” – Destroy Exist
”He plays guitar so incredibly well.” – We Love That Sound
”If you like alternative music such as Sun Kil Moon, Jose Gonzalez or Bon Iver, your attention is needed here.” – Sound of Aarhus
