“…On Burnout Days, “Swim Between Trees” leans upbeat and propulsive, anchored in that indie-rock-meets-pop energy that flipturn pull off so well. Eleni’s version, however, takes the track in an entirely different direction; slowed down, treated more like a mid-tempo ballad, and dripping with a kind of quiet tenderness. Eleni's delicate vocals enhance the song’s dreamy imagery, giving the lyrics (“My mind’s a river draped with leaves / And you’re still swimming through the trees”) room to breathe and resonate in a way that feels more intimate. The cover becomes less of a rework and more of a meditation, highlighting just how malleable a good song can be…”

flipturn have teamed up with Eleni Drake for a delicate reinterpretation of “Swim Between Trees.” The stripped-down version shines a new light on a fan favorite from Burnout Days, pairing Eleni’s crystalline vocals with flipturn’s introspective writing.
