'Learning To Swim On Empty' is the new EP from South Londoner Wu-Lu, his first material since 2022 breakthrough debut album, 'LOGGERHEAD'. Released digitally back in May 2024, the vinyl edition includes two previously unreleased tracks, 'Last Night With You (Instrumental)' and 'Crow's Nest (Instrumental)'. The EP finds the vocalist and musician diving deeper than ever before, surfacing with some of his most heartfelt, intimate songs yet, and broadening his sonic palette in the process. The record plays like a series of diary entries, inspired by growing up in Brixton, death and grief, rebirth, and the sink-or-swim feeling that comes with being thrown in at the deep end. Artwork is by Bráulio Amado.

"Learning To Swim On Empty is intimate in its writing but the recurring motif of water and of drowning and floating which runs throughout makes it a record that holds both listener and artist close, in a compelling way." - The Quietus
