Mute Swimmer is a moniker of British songwriter and visual artist Guy Dale. His music is characterized by a bare intimate style that draws from elements of folk music, minimalism and post-rock in a compelling and often self-reflexive way. He essentially takes the confessional intimacies of the singer-songwriter and re-imagines them through site-specific happening and performance art. Romantic, ironic and hauntingly melancholic by rapid turns, he has quickly earned a reputation as a formidable live performer.

Mute Swimmer has played alongside artists such as Stanley Brinks, David Thomas Broughton, Carla Bozulich, She Keeps Bees, Vio/Miré among many others performing widely in the UK and more recently Europe.

The album Mute Swimmer was released on Woodland Recordings in 2010. Other releases include; Treehouse (2005) under his own name and the E.P’s, Marriage (2007) and 30/01/08 (2009) with the group Funés. He also makes experimental sound works under the name Dala.
