Treading Water
We say
Glasgow-based singer-songwriter Quiet Man continues his impressive trajectory with 'Treading Water', a hauntingly introspective track that drifts between melancholy and hope. Following his RotD-featured single ‘Pretty Tough’, it’s another striking showcase of his emotionally raw, stripped-back sound. With its lo-fi guitars, intimate production and raw, emotive vocals, 'Treading Water' is perfect for fans of Tom Odell, Bon Iver, and Olivia Dean. Recently nominated for BBC Introducing’s Scottish Act of the Year 2025, he’s earned backing from BBC Introducing (Scotland and London), plus key slots at Pitchfork, Live at Leeds and SWN Festival, and sold out his first Glasgow headline show in August. Streaming support has followed suit, with appearances on Spotify’s New Music Friday UK and multiple Apple Music editorial playlists. Honest, stripped-back and deeply human, ‘Treading Water’ is a must listen.
