Seth Bernard - Unrest and Rest LP/CD/Tape

Released: 9/4/2023Catalog ID: EW0036 Seth Bernard will release his new record “Unrest and Rest” on September 4th (Labor Day). As always, Seth’s new music has been crafted with great care. This set is a sonic feast, and an offering of courage and comfort. Repeated listening rewards the listener, revealing the depths of the arrangements, the intention of the production choices, and the story of the sequence. “Unrest and Rest” covers a broad spectrum of Seth’s musicality, from densely textured and heavy rocking numbers to sparse delicate acoustic zones, ambient and experimental passages, and exquisite instrumental waltzes. This collection also contains some new territory, featuring extended instrumental passages carried by Seth’s melodic guitar work and saxophones played by U.P.-based tastemaker Patrick Booth. Rising star Charlie Millard is a welcome addition on keys of all kinds: piano, organ, Rhodes, and garage sale Casios. Lavish vocal harmonies are provided by Samantha Cooper and Gabr
