Today, with the release of a surreal new single ‘Your Reality’, Sylvan Essoenter their next era. Describing their first three albums as a trilogy that is now complete, Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn stand at the start of a period that is stranger and more cathartic than the band has ever been. Featuring a string arrangement from Gabriel Kahane, and delicately frenetic drums by TJ Maiani, the slippery, complexly layered single serves as the opening to a chapter, a reference point “for how weird we can take it,” says Sanborn. “How bare and strange something can be.”
Over a sparse, skittering pattern of percussive synth, Amelia Meath remembers how to live. She swims in the air and walks in the sky, while asking a question that has preoccupied the post-pandemic world: “Were there rules originally, or are we learning how to be?” From the depths of the mix an echoing bed of backing vocals answers, “No rules.”
Over the coming months, summer will also see Sylvan Esso play Newport Folk Festival, Life is Beautiful and more than 30 arena and amphitheater shows with ODESZA. Find information for all upcoming tour dates at sylvanesso.com/#tour.
