JIM SWIM
Jim Swim
Jim Swim is an artist-producer from Iowa City, Iowa who blends alternative hip-hop, indie soul, bedroom pop and lounge into warm, wavy songs that move between the everyday and the abstract. He writes, produces, records, mixes and masters his own material — a prolific output spanning 50+ Spotify releases including the Unruly Automatons EP and a steady run of 2025–2026 singles like Dog Show Wolf (June 2026), Small Sun and Six Feet Above. His lyrical flow and melodic hooks have earned coverage in Little Village and a loyal Midwest underground following built through Iowa City performances and collaborations with Tyler Stück, Alyx Rush and Mary Bozaan. Swim describes his sound as "the closest I've got to combining all of the sounds I love" — bedroom pop, soul, alt-hip-hop and indie rock woven into self-produced tracks that reward repeated listens.
