The Seshen – “Unravel” (Release)

We shared their project-titled single back at the end of August, and today I happened upon their full EP. Press play on this project below.

The “Unravel” EP,out 6th October,is the first release on Tru Thoughts from new signing The Seshen, a seven-piece band from the Bay Area, San Francisco, who have built a burgeoning fanbase through a handful of online tracks as well as live support dates for the likes of tUnE-yArDs, Thundercat and Hiatus Kaiyote.

Mixing live and electronic elements, and taking influence from sources including psychedelia, hip-hop, pop, R&B, West African music, dub and indie rock, The Seshen create beat-driven compositions with a strong emotional core. Striking a chord with fans and bloggers from first listen, a set of early tunes on Bandcamp inspired comparisons to J Dilla, Little Dragon, Beach House and Erykah Badu. Among the ensuing surge of industry interest they founda perfect home among the eclectic, soulful roster of Tru Thoughts, inking a deal in Spring 2014 to take it to the next level.
