Ground Swell Bottles the Afterglow on New Single “Bug Spray”

Ground Swell return with their new single “Bug Spray” – a hazy, reflective track about how deeply environment can shape emotional experience.

Written after bassist Adam’s wedding weekend in Logan, the song captures the quiet comedown of returning home – where moments of connection and clarity begin to fade into distance. That contrast drives “Bug Spray,” focusing less on the event itself and more on what lingers afterward.

Vivid, tactile lyrics like “my lips taste like bug spray / and your palm” and “my shoes are just canvas / my feet are numb” ground the song in a world that feels intimate yet slightly unsteady, blurring the line between place and feeling.

With “Bug Spray,” Ground Swell distill the emotional aftershock of meaningful moments – the way they stay with you, even as they start to slip away.
