The track features hip and R&B wunderkind Tink, and will be released on September 9, 2014.

“Secret Garden” highlights Sway’s fresh lyrical approach, and in his words, “’Secret Garden’ is the sweetest, cutest, loveliest, most beautiful way to tell your partner…you are cheating on them.”

Born in Toronto as one of 8 children to a Jamaican father and Cuban mother, Sway relocated to Berlin in 2010 to focus on work as a full time songwriter. He introduced himself with the track “I Don’t Need Much” which received praise from publications such as the NME and Fader. Sway recently caught up with SBTV and performed his song “I Don’t Need Much” – PRESS HERE<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5Cb5TYbweY&feature=youtu.be> to watch!

Sway was drafted by HAIM as main support for the European leg of their tour, was picked up by Zane Lowe as his ‘Next Hype’ on BBC Radio 1, and has recently been featured by The New York Times T: Style Magazine surrounding his first Los Angeles performance.

“Secret Garden” is just the beginning - more exciting news to come from this undeniable new talent, Sway Clarke II.

Praise for Sway Clarke II:

"A cross between Frank Ocean and Lorde.” – The FADER.com

“[‘Secret Garden’] staccato, bouncy, piano-driven production immediately appealed to fans, and introduced him to even more.” – Complex.com

“…the singer-songwriter's latest [‘Secret Garden’] built of a catchy piano sound and his own signature vocal that is bound to be stuck in your head for hours after you hit play.” – Hypetrak

“His new song ‘Secret Garden’ is more upbeat and just as catchy, anchored by a piano bounce reminiscent of Frank Ocean’s “Super Rich Kids.” It’s that sweet spot between alt-R&B and pure pop…” –Pigeons and Planes

“‘Secret Garden’ sounds like it could have been written by Frank Ocean or Miguel, RnB lotharios to whose crown Sway undeniably has a claim.” – The Line of Best Fit
