3年前的专辑《Lost Channels》发行后的第二年Great Lake Swimmers就来到中国巡演，虽然规模并不大，但是足以证明Great Lake Swimmers在中国的人气，加上当时新专辑的口碑不错，中国之行又为他们增添不少姿色。新专辑《New Wild Everywhere》依然抱着很积极的态度，描述人们探索自然世界，爱，死亡，逃避。Great Lake Swimmers接下来的工作依然是不断的巡演，用民谣道出一份摇滚般的独立思想。 Great Lake Swimmers songs have always felt like dust motes hanging in a beam of sunlight; hazy, lazy, warm and hypnotic. Relocating themselves to the studio proper rather than recording in ambient spaces like churches and adding new members (most interestingly Miranda Mullholland on violin and backing vocals) has done little to change the atmosphere or impact of the songs. They do sound less singular though, but as this is still filtered through Tony Dekker the change is subtle; nothing radical, just a clarification. The tone is warmer, more rounded and more playful, the giggle of banjo and the tickle of violin on ‘Ballad of a Fisherman’s Wife’ coax a lighter side from Dekker.
