How Not To Drown with Chvrches

We check in with Ian Cook, one-third of the Scottish synth-pop band Chvrches. They are set to release their forthcoming album titled “Screen Violence” - their first since 2018. The band is back with two singles so far, their latest one being ‘How Not To Drown’ featuring Robert Smith of The Cure. Ian shares his experience and the process of recording the release amid a global pandemic with travel restrictions in place.
