California artist Swan Paradise has released Brightest Hour, a three-track project that carries deep personal weight. Out on July 29, 2025, the EP was originally crafted in the early days of COVID, during a time when resources were scarce but inspiration ran high. Despite having an entire rollout plan years ago, Swan never followed through—until now.
“These songs represent a moment when I poured everything I had into the music,” Swan reflects. “Love, soul, and intention were all I had to give. Holding onto them for so long kept me from creating something new, but now it feels right to let them go.”
Produced, written, performed, and engineered entirely by Swan Paradise, Brightest Hour showcases the raw energy and honesty of an artist who builds everything from the ground up. At his core, Swan identifies as a producer first, letting the lyrics follow naturally. The EP is the first of three, with the final installment set to arrive at the end of this month.
With a sound reminiscent of Dijon and Kevin Abstract, Swan Paradise blends vulnerability with experimental textures, carving his own lane in the process. His dream collaborators include Tyler, the Creator, Jean Dawson, and Lil Uzi Vert—artists who, like him, thrive in pushing boundaries.
