(PR) When Great Lake Swimmers' Tony Dekker wrote the song "Everything is Moving So Fast," he couldn't have predicted that it would foreshadow the rapid success of the Toronto band's fourth album, Lost Channels. For a project that has seen a slow upward trajectory since its humble beginnings in 2001, the Great Lake Swimmers are suddenly getting exponentially more attention across North America and Europe, entrancing newcomers to the band with Dekker's unforgettable voice and compelling songwriting.
Now fresh from an acclaimed tour of the UK and Europe, the band is set to return to the road once more across North America. To celebrate their return to native soil, iTunes released a brand new Live Session EP on June 2nd
